P ysical Education A new program was initiated for se- niors this year to coordinate with their new scheduling program. The school year was divided into six Physical Ed- ucation units, each unit covering a span of six-weeks. Seniors were re- quired to complete five units of 12 hours per unit, for a total of sixty hours. Many different programs were offered in each unit. These included: camping, snowmobiling, volleyball, golf, tennis, bicycle riding, skiing, swimming, and horseback riding. Se- niors fulfilled their Physical Education requirements in their spare time, after B.S., SUNY at Brockport. Girls Phys. Ed. 7-12. AD- VISES-G.A.A, COACHES-Girls Soccer, Basketball.

Those who didnlt desire to participate in this new program were scheduled for a tradi- tional Physical Education class during school time. LeRoy was one of the first schools in this area to attempt this type of Physical Education Curric- ulum. It was organized mainly through the efforts of Mr. Santini, Miss Eaton, and Mr. Jay. Many new co-educational programs were introduced into the traditional physical education curriculum. Classes were combined to instruct students in the basics of golf, tennis, and archery.

Arts f Iiv ts: 7,81 Wood I, II' Us: , The Industrial Arts Department is separated into two divisions, the wood shop and the metal shop. Courses are open to both boys and girls in grades seven through twelve. Seventh and Eighth grade shop was taught in an ex- ploratory fashion. They covered a broad area during a se- mester without going into depth on any one topic. The class was a sample to be followed up with more advanced courses in future years. Seventh grade students studied wood and drawing while eighth grade students studied electricity and metals. Wood I and II are twenty week courses open to grades nine through twelve. Students in Wood I are involved in fur- niture construction, lathe work, laminating, and veneering. Wood II deals with model house construction, repair work, electrical wiring, and work with machines involved in car- pentry. These students may also elect to study in the metal shop. Basic metals is a course which includes work with sheet metal, welding, metal lathe, and small engine repair. Advanced metal students learn to operate more advanced machinery and also study auto mechanics and auto body re- pair. Additional courses in the department include architec- tural drawing, and technical drawing. Architectural drawing deals with landscaping, maps, and blueprints. Students learn to design houses, and commercial buildings. Technical draw- ing is a two-phase course: technical drawing I and II. Stu- dents are introduced to all types of drawing including multi- view projection, pictorial, surveying, and electrical.

They have to schedule each student in the school, individually, according to their needs, desires, and future goals. In addition to scheduling, they also administer the many aptitude and I.Q. tests that are used to place students in the classes suited for them. A career workshop for juniors was started again in January. In cooperation with Genesee Community College, the Guidance Department helped the participants to investi- gate the various career opportunities open to them. The Guidance Department also must keep seniors in- formed about college board exams, scholarships, college ap- plications, and financial aid forms. Librar GERALD HALLIGAN-B.S., M.S. SUNY at Geneseo.

ADVISES: Jr. Library Club. When someone mentions the library, the first image that comes to mind is walls lined with books, and a librarian busily working behind a desk piled high with books and mag- azines. There is much more work that must be done to make it possible for people to borrow books Cand use the many re- source materials availablej at no charge to them, than is re- alized. There is a workroom downstairs where the librarians and secretaries do all the things necessary to make a library function. Mr. Halligan likes to refer to this room as the nerve centerl' of the library. All the small things that keep the library operating smoothly and efficiently were taken care of in this room. The seniors came to appreciate the library this year even more than the other students, because they had more spare time on their hands. They discovered the library was more than just a place to go when a book was needed in a hurry. They found it a convenient place to do homework or to just spend extra time with friends. If they got a little too noisy, Mrs. Hill was always on hand to give her version of the ABC's: A . . . sit together and work quietly, B . . . separate and work alone, or C . . . leavef, This wasnlt neces- sary too often because the seniors didn't want to leave. The library had become one of their special places for a mo- ment. ELIZABETH EARL HARE-Q ROSE 0'GEEN- SUTTELL- , B.S. SUNY at Secretary.
