Shop Teachers Stress Safety, Teach Useful Skills The Industrial Arts program offers auto shop, elec- tronics, architectural drawing, machine drawing, metal shop, wood shop, and drafting. Safety is particularly stressed in these classes. Students wear goggles to protect their eyes, and work in pairs when using high voltage equipment. By training to maintain constant vigilance, the instructors in this area do their best to produce safety- conscious young men. Many of these courses are taken for pleasure and others are taken in preparation for future jobs in the technical and industrial world. Mr. Fry Mr. Kochaney i» mi m i.

Driver Education, taught by Mr. Corsi and Mr. Schlegel, strives to develop safe and careful drivers in . just six weeks. In order to pass this course a student must have reg- ular attendance, and pass driving and written tests.
