Molding Responsible Drivers Driving is the best part. lt gives you real road experience, and you get out of class, too, revealed Jenny Ball, a student enrolled in the driver's education program. Over three-hundred students who wished to attain their Driver's Licensewent through the course, learning about traf- fic safety. This included fuel conservation and car maintenance along with the three phase pro- gram of driving simulators, written modules and on-the-road driving. To make safe and courteous drivers out of each student was the goal sought by the Traffic Safety Department. They also stressed the ill effects of mixing drinking and drugs with driving. This went hand in hand with creating responsible drivers, the main objective of the department. Instructor Jerry Kirk concluded, The goals ot the class primarily are to develop good, safe driv- ing habits. J. Colucclo l J' l By l 5f9'L' '7l lgfky Petroiuitch S. Landen2 S, Llhden 4 1.

Get That Job! Inflation and a competitive job market urged many students to enroll in classes offered by the Business Department. Skills learned from Accounting, Typing, Office Practice, Sales and Marketing, Shorthand, and Data Processing were just a few of the ways students were able to better prepare themselves for a career-oriented world. Thirty-one students were able to receive on-the-job training, high school credits, and money earned from their hours spent both during school and after. This added experience to their resumes and money for the rising costs they found themselves burdened by throughout the year. Students learned how to write resumes, how to dress for success, how to approach a job inter- view, howto use business equipment, and what to do in difficult job situations. The concern of the staff was apparent by the words of Mr. Tom Dahl, the Business Depart- ment Head, The kids are neat. We want to get everyone employed. With the valuable ex- perience the students received, a job in the demanding career world was just one step away. C. Jacobs P I We .. D.J0l'nson2 1.
