ART EDUCATION Throughout the year, our school halls are lined with various forms of art work. These are all samples of the artistic approaches considered in the Hopkins art program. For instance, art students now take charge of posters to promote major school activities such as Homecoming and Sno-Daze. Flopkins art students also draw backdrops for the variety shows. Young artists arc often seen outside the school sketching the pond and golf course. Field trips are arranged for the art classes and some students are given the opportunity to exhibit their work at art shows. Although each teacher handles the subject differently, students can expect a good, basic art education. Bob Rood puts the finishing touches on the backdrop for the Homecoming Variety Show. Mr. Prellwitz finishes a display of the modernistic approach to art.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION PROGRAM More and more emphasis is being placed on physical education and Hopkins High School is doing its share. The object of our physical education courses is to promote good sportsmanship in team play and to maintain a high standard of physical fitness. Although sophomores arc required to take physical education, many students elect to continue it in their junior and senior years. Hopkins' physical education program offers swimming instruction.
