Business ls Where lt's At 355 ' . W, g,,,.....,., ...M l yr Everything changes with time, and Northmont's lusiness Department is certainly an example of nhange. Areas such as: B.O.E., I.O.E., Business llath, Bookkeeping, Shorthand and Typing have great deal to do with our ever-changing society. lusiness furthers the knowledge of the students nd provides them with the necessary skills they need for a successful career in the future. lVlost of he students will agree they like the relaxed tmosphere that the teachers present, which nakes learning a little easier. ln B.O.E. and .E. the girls enjoy having privileges similar to se given in a business office: Such as fifteen nute breaks between periods, and not needing ass to leave the room. The B.O.E. girls have nad bake sales and have sold candy throughout he year. A student comments, There are not nough machines at times, and, therefore, too nany people on one machine. And the desks are bit too small for when a lot of papers are used t one time. But these few inconviences can't be lelped because of the limited space. Despite hese inconviences the girls are receiving expert raining in the secretarial areas. The use of dif- erent machines, accounting, and filing are a few if the worthwhile subjects being taught. In lookkeeping students are learning the payroll ystem and how to become a successful book- eeper. Most bookkeeping students will agree hat the most important part is understanding. lhorthand is basically taking dictation, learning .ow to write it and reading back from shorthand otes. At times it does get rough, the students gree nothing can compare with the satisfaction ine receives from getting a good grade on a trans- ription. General Business involves the students 1 working mathematical problems pertaining to iusiness. Balancing checkbooks and budgets, fill- wg out a check and a bank statement are just a w of the abilities learned in this class. Typing cludes learning how to type business letters and 'ianuscripts correctly and efficiently for future se in an office. So, in conclusion, one can see lusiness is where it's happening for today's 'oung people. .O ho ni P Mr. Schreel keeps smiling, though, at times it's tough . . . Mrs. Wolfinger always gets her point across
