COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT The principal aim of the teachers in the Commercial Department is to develop in each student a salable skill or skills which will enable him upon graduation to obtain employment of his choice. Speakers from business organization and companies are invited to the school to talk with juniors and seniors. If students take advantage of these opportuni- ties, they are better able to meet competition and to be successful in their jobs. Mr. Donald Hoagland Mr. Stanley Werner INDUSTRIAL ARTS The courses in the Industrial Arts Department give the student a basic knowledge of metal and wood work, printing, agriculture, and the graphic arts.
