Home And Family Living Aids L .i B u r ' sf ' if A x Q' QW, - : i i i Mildred Hutchins Mary Patrick Education in home and family living is fun- damental to the growth and development of an individual. If all members of a family are to live together harmoniously, the adolescent needs to learn to accept responsibility as a member of the family. Home and Family education recognizes the home as a place where children and adults find security, develop character, and learn a satis- fying pattern of life. Our home and family cur- riculum is built around the characteristic needs and wants of the high school student in a family centered program. This program helps the indivi- dual to become more conscious of his home and community responsibilities. He will become a bet- ter friend and citizen by particpating in a variety of experiences which will give him confidence in his ability to meet new situations as they arise with the greatest satisfaction. sg-+ oth Girls And Boys I ... 1 J.

By teaching the student to use and think with machines and tools it contributes something that he can't learn in any other area. It is a curriculum area that makes real- istic contribution to life adjustment educa- tion. It provides for all types of living, those that go on to college get the practical as well as the technical training for their profession. It trains tomorrow's scientists as well as me- chanics, carpenters, designers, electricians, printers, tool designers and machinists. The practical experience of actually doing will help others who do not enter industrial occupa- tions to be better equipped to make home re- pairs or better use of leisure time. The Industrial Arts curriculum at Wash- ington High School includes the following areas: Auto Mechanics, Drawing, Electricity, Machine Shop, Metal Work, and Woodwork. 28- Allen Techau and Tim Gutierrez work with n circular saw during Advanced Woodworking class.
