Art.. What do ou like most about art class? was asked of 2 0 enrolled art students. Painting-because it's relaxing and fun fse- nior girlj. The atmosphere! lt's an hour to get away from the regular ol'grind tsenior boyl. I like art because it helps to relax the mind and it's one of the best ways of communication fsenior girll. Art helps you to under- stand the struggle that other artists go through to produce fine artwork tsophomore girly, lt's an hour just to get away and to be yourself fsenior boyj. Art teachers agreed on the importance of art. I believe art is interesting to all students whether they can draw or not, because of the importance of art in everyday life. We are all consumers of art and can all appreciate drawing, painting and design tMrs. Gay Straw-art teacherl. I believe that through art we can learn to be more aware of our surroundings and to be more creative. In this way we become a better citizen, a better consumer and a better person fMrs. Margaret Johnson-sculp- ture, ceramics teacherj.

I cook the same recipes at home that I have cooked at school. I go through the same steps. In that way I know l'm doing right isenior girll. I used what I have learned in making my own garments at home fjunior girlj. I have learned tailoring for wool skirts and dresses isenior girll. I've helped my mother plan the menus and shop for the right kinds of foods tsenior girly. Now when I fix a meal, I make sure it's well-balanced and attractive tsenior girll. One teacher commented, Any teaching of home economics should have a two fold purpose. It should in- crease the present efficiency of the individual and train for the future. It should prepare girls to assume places of responsibility in the home and society. Home economics can prepare girls for careers and for the dual role of career and homemaker. img. -r . ' . .
