PRACTICAL ARTS New “Home and Family Living” course offered to senior high students. Contacting one’s finger with one’s hammer was a practice earnestly avoided in wood classes. Mr. laca-rella’s younger students learned the correct methods of leather and plastics work this year, as industrial courses were expanded to include a wider range of interests. Senior high electronics stressed extensive vocational training and offered an exchange program to University High students. In the first semester Home and Family Living classes undertook a study of values. Mrs. Mose taught the practical aspects of married life, like budgeting and the responsibility of parenthood in hopes that the students would gain ’’the ability to fulfill their obligations to their families and their community.”
