Making History From the seventh grade to graduation, Hauser students are subjected to history in a variety of ways. Starting with basic history in junior high and proceeding through Government during their Senior year. Mr. Gerry Gividen, one of the junior high History teachers, resigned after eleven and one half years of teaching. He was replaced by Mr. James Stewart, who previously taught at Clinton Central and several other schools. During their sophomore year, students are given the option to take World History. This class is taught by Mr. Mike Brock. Unlike earlier years of history, the students become more involved by taking part in plays and simulation games. Juniors are required to take U.S. History which is taught by Mr. Gary Hamner. This class differs from other history classes because it studies only American history as compared to other general history classes. The last but still important class is required for Seniors to take. This class is Government Psychology. Mr. Mike Brock, the teacher of this course, associates with all Seniors throughout the year. By choice or by requirement students study the history of different lands. Taught by several teachers, history is explored throughout high school. A: Lonnie Williams helps with a job more easily done by Lance Roberts in turning a map around in Government. B: Mr. Hamner points out some details on a U.S. History assignment to Donna Michael. 16 History

Training in Drivers Ed. and P.E., though different, both aid in helping the student grow mentally and physically. Although fifteen is the required age for Drivers Ed., students of all ages can take part in Phys. Ed. The Drivers Ed. classes were greeted with new books this year. Teaching this course were Mr. Miller, Mr. Irvine, and Mr. Keller. The Drivers Ed. program consisted of thirty hours of classroom time and six hours of behind the wheel driving. Defensive driving was introduced early and used throughout the program. Students were conditioned to think ahead, analyze the situation, and take appropriate action. Phys. Ed., one of the more active classes, took on a variety of sports. Activities participated in by both girls and boys were softball, basketball, track and newly introduced tennis. In addition to this list, the boys engaged in weight training and wrestling, while the girls took part in tumbling and dancing. Drivers Ed. and Phys. Ed. can benefit persons of all ages. Driving under supervision helps build one's confidence while participating in a group activity teaches the student how to get along with others.
