Z. . . - JFOUIQ CU Juniors and seniors, who do not plan to further their education after graduation from high school, are able to receive vocational training through the Distributive Education or Industrial Co-operative Training courses. These classes provide the students with part-time employment during the school year, and present a better understanding of the business world to them. The main goal of the D.E. program is to introduce the opportunities in sales promotion, economics, business organization, career planning and psychology to the student. Under the I.C.T. program, students receive training which develops their own personal skills. Through the D.E. and I.C.T. courses, students gain experience and training that will assure them of advances in the business world. Distributive Education students host representatives from various vocations during Career Week activities.

U7 Csfrenyffens ygoofes 75 ZUQHQ-7.9 Freshman girls do exercises under the watchful eyes of Miss Edith Smith. Walking hand-in-hand with mental development is physical development. A requirement of all freshmen, physical education is a valuable aspect in the curriculum at Northwest. From the first Ready! Exercisell, it is evident that this is more than just a play period. This is a time of co-operation and teamwork, stemming from personal participation. Sharing the spotlight with health, the physical education program enables the student to learn more about himself as he takes part in the pre-planned exercises and sports. This period each day offers an outlet for relieving the built-up tensions every student experiences. Alternating days in the gym, both the boys and girls have a varied course of events throughout the week. From volleyball, soccer, or basketball to a co-educational plan on Friday, physical education proves to be a challenging area of academic life at Northwest.
