The teachers prepare their students by observing those who have the greatest potential, and ask them if they would be willing to put in the extra work to go to contest. They then begin giving them timings and tests, and eliminate students until they have three persons for each team. A lot of extra time and hard work is involved. Three divisions are set up to divide students according to the number of years they have taken a subject. They are: novice, the first year: amateur, the second yearg and open, for the third year of typing. All teachers agreed that this year's teams did very well considering the fact the kids didn't have all the time to prepare that they needed, because of the snow days that were missed. 1.

Business Classes Keep Extra Busy A wall full of trophies, consecutive first-, second , and third places year after year at contests--district and state.
