Students Find Work Everyone seemed to need mon- ey and one way to get it was to find a job. That's what many HHS students did. They need money for cars, clothes, concert tickets and to have a little extra pocket cash. Most of the students just stick to their homework, and get a job during the summer months. EXPLAINING THE DIFFERENCE in cameras to a customer was Senior Kathy Biessel's job. Kathy works for Photo Fair in Hastings. Some working students have to be on the job by 3:00 which leaves them out of any extra curricular activities. A handful of students leave for work after period 4. They are enrolled in the work pro- grams like DECA, OBA, and Trade and Industry. FILLING OUT receipts for customers was part of the job for Senior Brian Biermaier. Brian puts his time in at Hastings TV and Appliance.

To enroll in one of several courses offered, such as OEA, DECA, T 8: I, Work Study, or Agri. Business, students had to pass preliminary courses. These courses consisted of mostly seniors and some juniors. The students worked at an ap- proved and supervised training station in the business commu- nity. They worked 15-20 hours a week and received pay for their work. The OEA work program had students working in the com- munity where they practiced their skills learned in school. The Agri.
