DISTRIBUTIVE EDUCATION M. Pierce Distributive Education is a new addition at Ox- ford Hills High School, as it is in the entire state of Maine. It is different from any other course in the school in that students work in businesses around the area as part of their learning experiences. Stu- dents in this program prepare themselves for careers in retailing, wholesaling, and servicing. They receive formal classroom instruction in school and practical application at their jobs. The instructor closely co- ordinates their work experiences outside the school. In this way the student is somewhat prepared for a vocation when he graduates from high school. You will find the students in this course engaged in various activities from banking to working in department stores.

BUSINESS EDUCATION Standing: A. Briggs, S. Niemi, D. Goss Seated G Thayer M. Pierce, N. Tyrell, C. Banks. The Business Education department has a two- fold objective. One objective is vocational in natureg the other is general. One who pursues the business education program can well prepare himself to earn a living in either the secretarial or clerical field, or he can get a good foundation for continuing his business education in an institute of higher learn- ing. Students in other programs also find courses in business which will benefit them, and we find many of them in the business education program. The business department at Oxford Hills High School is well-equipped and organized to meet the needs business dictates, and the business staff is constantly evaluating and making changes which they think will benelit our students.

SOCIAL STUDIES Seated: E. Trebilcock, R. Summer, I. Roberts, I. Parsons. Standing: P. Nason, J. Baker. The basic aims of the social studies department include the teaching of specifically chosen material, the development of reasoning and critical judge- ment, training in independent study and in forma- tion of habits and skills, and the molding of good conduct in the student. Each specific social studies course has its aims, as each has its own contributions to make to the student. This part of the curriculum more than any other deals with all aspects of mankind - his inner being as well as his outer being. It shows each stu- dent where man has made mistakes and progressed, and how each of us can help form a better society.
