Art was offered as a four year course with fourth year students displaying their work in an Art Fair held in the spring. The Music Department consisted of four choirs, five bands and a guard corps. Performances given by the choirs, directed by Mr. John Schmitt, included fall, Christmas, and spring concerts and the annual Madrigal Dinner. The five bands, all directed by Mr. Scott Robbins, participated in march- ing band season and Christmas and spring concerts. The entire Music Department partici- pated in the spring musical.

Foreign Language, Art, and Music Creativity and culture thrive in classes To promote interest in foreign cus- toms and educational aspects of lan- guage, the Foreign Language Depart- ment offered French, German and Spanish. Its curriculum became more culturally oriented and heavily oral, as the 1984-1985 enrollment increased substantially with the seven-period schedule. Students who took two years of a language also had a choice of continu- ing their language through advanced classes such as French III and German III and IV. The Foreign Language Department also provided special opportunities such as students taking a NATG testing program to qualify for a trip to Ger- many and making Spanish Christmas decorations.

Home Economics and Industrial Arts Practical skills enhanced by basic courses Home Economics students took part in preparing delicious meals and creat- ing fashionable apparel. Making stu- dents aware of the role home econom- ics plays in their everyday lives was emphasized throughout the year. In addition to daily classroom work students saw a meat cutting demon- stration which was performed by the Farm Bureau Coop. Advanced food stu- dents prepared, served and cleaned for the annual faculty Christmas dinner. This year the home economics de- partment added a new class, Marriage and Family Living. Another change was that Mrs. Vicky Zickmund worked with V.E. Co-op for part of the day.
