Growing io Meei New Challenges and Changes ••ft took a lot of growing but we f finally adjusted to most of the changes,” said senior Cindy Russell. Class adjustment was effected directly by the involvement of the students and new technology introduced into the classroom. When an article of much use reaches a certain age, improvements are usually made on the original model. Many students and the adminis- tration believed that such a time had come for the classes of J.H.S. The students in DECA class became involved in the training in computers because of the nine new computers that were installed in Ms. Janice Stockton's Distributive Education classes. Jeannie Randolph stated, “With all the new technology being introduced in our world today. I'm glad that I have the opportunity to learn about computers.” Being able to type and feed information into a computer has been a challenging and rewarding task to me, said sophomore Tina Tomlinson, it's something I really enjoy doing. IBM typewriters are just another added change to Mrs. Joycelyn Hepburn's typing classes. A view expressed by both administrators and instructors was that standards in the classroom should be raised and that students should gain the knowledge from courses that they will need in college and future life. Although most classes were taken with the future in mind, some classes were just taken because students enjoyed the class. Mrs. Emily Bierschwale's Home Economics classes is one of those. Boys still take the classes because they enjoy cooking and stuffing their faces and girls enjoy preparing themselves to be future homemakers. So many of the students take HE for just one of these reasons. There still seemed to be several improvements that needed to be in the new curriculum but there also seems to be no danger of the original models being used up” within the next few years. 10 Sponsored by Dr. Frank A.
