Jean Riney and Sue Schweim put the final touches on their sewing projects. Not Just Playing House Homemaking skills, though rarely acknowledged, are essential for survival and welJ-being. Students often neglect the need for learning and fully developing these basic sJcills. Reahzing this, the NHS Home Economics department makes it exceedingly difficult to overlook the wide expanse of general knowledge required for successfully maintain- ing a household. Carlo Tibbie expertly leads classes in paren- ting, living skills and the traditional courses, including clothing and foods. The home economics staff ensures that any student par- ticipating in the program will, upon comple- tion, possess the basic skills that are vital to set- ting up a home.
