Throughout the school, students freed themselves from the nor- mal academic classes by taking one of the various vocational art classes that suited their fancy. In this class new experiences waited for those inside. In art, plain sheets of paper bloomed into polished artistry. Students in auto mechanics sharpened and tuned their skills while repairing tools and cars. Those students in- terested in cosmetology carefully shaped and styled hair of students and faculty members. Finally, students who loved to cook prepared luncheons and special meals for the staff. The Home Economics Department also held child development classes where students worked with children in a day care center atmosphere. All together, these classes helped students gain ex- perience in specific fields which will never be forgotten. p5, £ tV lo f .

Beth!! Students at Lake Brad- dock this year found SGA, Yearbook, Bear Facts, and Photojournalism to be more than just classes • they became jobs. Further- more. these classes became increasing- ly popular among the Bruins. The spon- sors of these programs felt that the ma- jor reasons for the popularity lent itself to the fact that students enjoyed the freedom, responsibility, and excite- ment of the actual coordinating, mak- ing decisions, and the writing, accom- panying these courses. Although there was no ‘homework’ associated with the classes, pupils detected a great amount of responsibility and work. Within the journalism classes, staff members found interviews to take, copy and layout to finish, and deadlines to meet. SGA students discovered similar tasks such as organizing committees for SGA sponsored events, coordinating chaperones, advertising, and selling tickets for these events. With all con- sidered (hard work and frustrating moments), students finished their work with a greater sense of accomplish- ment than in many of their other classes because they just did not learn - they produced!
