The homemaking department has undergone great Change this year with the addition of a new room, a new teacher, and new furniture. The new state curriculum still stresses classes in foods, clothing, housing, manage- ment, and family relationships, but has expanded its scope to reach a greater number of students. Two new half-year courses have been added in Child Care and Development and Community Health to encourage students to elect classes in homemaking during their free time. Girls involved in the Home Ec. programs also have the opportunity to plan and hostess receptions and teas for faculty and student organizations throughout the year. The homemakin curriculum is versatile enou h to provide areas of concentra- v- tion for the guture homemaker and helpfu? electives for the students with academic majors. Mrs. Mary Alice Ryan - Sp.

The stu- dbents learn not only how to drive correctly and defensively, but also about the finances and mechanics of the automobile. Girls enrolled in this course are given special instructions on changing tires, and learn to detect the early warnings of a poorly working engine. The sin le semester drivin course has an influence on the stu dents that fasts much longer tian six months. The practical knowledge the student has gained will make him a better, more courteous driver today - and in the future. Mr. Donald Olin The-special class, with the help of their teacher Mrs Schraeder, has been very active in school affairs this year. Their major project was a trip to New York City as part of a study of transportation and communications in the modern world. This trip was financed by a care- fully planned bake sale and by the sale of Christmas candles that the students made themselves. Lecture courses are supplemented by practical train- ing.
