Art Department Decorates School The Art Department was very busy this year trying to bring alive the school spirit in the student body. They decorated the commons for Halloween and Christmas and painted the sets for the school plays. Mr. Blinn said his students showed alot of enthusiasm this year, especially his second year art students who really enjoyed ceramics. Tammy Newland, senior, who had been in art for three years said that the class was very enjoyable. She also stated that the first year art students spend alot of time drawing their fellow classmates while they're learning about drawing hands, heads, and bodies. According to Tammy, the second year art students learn how to do silkscreening, pottery, and oil painting. In the third year pf art, students can do anything they ve learned in the first two years. No matter what year of art they're taking all the students have to do daily reports and bibliographies. Despite that fact, many of the students enjoyed that art class and took it for more than one year.

 Model Office Good Practice Business students had an opportunity this year to work 50 hours in a model office situation. Cosmetics were made and sold by the Serpendipity Company. In this company seven positions were filled: receptionist, simulator, office manager, sales manager, accountant, accounting clerk, and shipping clerk. Although there were difficult times, there were also humorous ones. The frustration of books that didn't balance and shipments supposedly late will be looked back on and laughed at. Six girls operated the office for five weeks at a time while the rest of the students were customers. After five weeks the students rotated. The model office provided a flow of office practice while requiring the cooperation of all employees. Bookkeeping did small projects throughout the year which demonstrated how to keep a set of books for different types of occupations. Students in D.E. 1 layed out and furnished a store or mall ana located it in a certain town and where they felt it would do the most good. Lori Mosier, SharonTaylor, and Liz Pend-rick, seniors, run the Serpendipity Company in Model Office Practice. Laura Powers, junior, receives help from Mr. feed on a bookkeeping project.
