Business courses were boosted up considerably this year. The teachers added more extra activities resulting in the increased interest of the students. One of the added attractions to business was a Type-a-thon held in Mrs. Nancy Beatty's Typing class. The students were eager to improve their typing abilities so as to beat their competitors, therefore resulting in higher speeds and grades. Speakers visited Bookkeeping and Accounting classes. They spoke about the various opportunities for students studying business and of the many jobs that could be obtained by business majors. This proved to be informative and inspirational to students in Business. Mrs. Nancy Beatty, teacher of Shorthand I and II, Typing II, and Accounting, said that she felt there were more students that seemed to be interested in business this year. Mr. Tesh Wickard who taught Typing I and Business Machines concluded, Everyone can benefit from business.
