Students, on coming back to school, found that Hauser has been growing. Five new teachers were added to the faculty to give the students a greater opportunity for learning. Wood shop and metal technology were added for the variety in the curriculum. Thirteen new typewriters, six of which are replacements for trade-ins, were bought because of larger typing classes. Two typewriters were put in the publication room for the convenience of the Jetstream staff. The library added 121 new books the first semester. By the end of the school year, it will have added 600 more books. All of these additions help aid the student in obtaining a better education. Many more improvements are planned for the future years of Hauser. 9
