Physical Education Physical education classes teach fresh- man boys primarily physical culture and game fundamentals. Required P.E. classes for ninth-grade girls alternate health classes with physical activity. Skills of physical activity and of sports are emphasized. Ad- vanced P.E. students learn basic rules of games so they may teach others or use them as a lifetime sport. Classes in physical education provide girls with a means to improve fundamental skills and develop good sportsmanship. Social Studies Mr. Pitzer works diligently at his desk grading test papers “after hours.” World history, usually acquired in the tenth grade, is a survey of the progress of man through the ages, with an emphasis on art, world religion, and geographic in- fluences on history. A junior re- quirement is a study of person- alities, events, and social con- ditions that have shaped America in the past, present, and will in the future. Civics pertains to the make-up of our government and its functions. Sociology and eco- nomics deals with relationships be- tween people, and how their be- havior traits affect everyday lives. 25

V ocational I Home economic students learn economy through practical ap- pMcation of their sewing skills. Agriculture is related to the farm com- munity. Trades and Industries is a course of supervised training for different trades such as bricklaying, carpentry, and mechan- ics. Drafting students draw architectural views of buildings, and plan front right sides of objects. Students taking ICT learn a trade by working in local business es- tablishments each afternoon. They are in school until 12:30, and take four other subjects. Through the study of the varied aspects of home economics, many girls learn the value of experience in home life. Future homemakers acquire skills in home management, wardrobe and budget plan- ning, nutrition and chUd care. In addition, they learn the management of resources — time, energy, and money — as well as the techniques of housekeeping. Business Typing I teaches beginning typing for business students and typing for personal use. Typing II delves deeper into proper typing of all business forms and stresses office etiquette. Another course teaches shorthand to be used in the office later. Bookkeeping stim- ulates an interest in becoming a certified public accountant or qualifies a student to do certain types of record keeping. General business pertains to credit and gen- eral living (banking, writing checks), and Business English is similar to required English, but it concentrates on business terms. Typing students like Marilyn Smith strive to attain maximum speed with minimum errors. 24
