Clothing is a necessary part of an independent life, that important life which high school is pre- paring each of us. The Clothing classes are not only for the future homemakers but also for those who wish to make an occupation of sewing or other related careers. In the fundamental clothing classes the students are taught the basics, such as reading patterns, parts of the sewing machine, how they work, and also making products from their own patterns. A Stitch in Time The more advanced classes are taught the finer points of sewing, so that by the end of the course their garments look like tailored art. The fearless leader of this ex- traordinary group of students is Mrs. lean Schack, who guides her classes with a personal touch all her own. Working on the sewing window Denise Tilley and Michele Williams try to show their Halloween creativity Carefully, Iudy Tonk, sews her l track letter on her sweater. l Lending a helpful hand, Debra Iordon, points out a problem to Willamae McCulough. if 's 1 ,, E, 260f SEWING s x f . l 'Sf ii - X

'Q wi t Matt Co iroyr Before a structure is built, there first must be planners and builders who devote much time and effort to the project. We have a class that is preparing students to do that. They learn much of the knowledge involved in the construction industry 'l'heir teacher, Matt Conroy has taught the class to use power tools, read blueprints, and additional skills. Mr. Conroy's Construction Class makes and sells storage buildings and childrens playhouses. The Construction 2 and 3 classes this year delivered a complete playhouse, built entirely by them, including the concrete pad. This was constructed for Palm Bay Elementary School for their new wing. The Construction Class will build any building to suit the individual as long as it can be moved away by trucks. Demonstrating their knowledge of power tools, Pete Loomis and Chris Spradlin work dedicatedly towards a goal. Students in the Construction course are putting time and effort into a better world for tomorrow's people. CONSTRUCTIONXZSQ

N ot just Childs Play The child care classes are made up of students who understand that to- day's children are tomorrow's future. The classes are designed to instill knowledge, patience, a caring attitude and that special type of love that is needed to teach and raise our little fu- tures. Included in the courses are nutri- tion and psychology seminars which will specifically instruct the students in the physical and mental needs of a child. Not only are the students in- structed about children, they are given time with children in class to observe and use the knowledge they have gath- ered.
