What's Cooking in Home Economics? Mrs. Sue Cleveland Department Chariman Mrs. Marilyn Lambeth t 1 W' tis: Miss Barbara Porter AQ Mrs. Nan Tobin The Home Economics curriculum expanded this year to in- clude two new courses, Creative Clothing and Creative Foods. Creative Clothing is designed for those students who wish to expand their knowledge about sewing. Creative Foods enables the students to learn how to prepare full course meals and buffets. Menus range from fancy American dishes to delicious Mexican varieties. Other electives include Child Development, Fashion and Construction, Clothing for Teens and Bachelor Survival. Bachelor Survival is open to junior and Senior boys who are interested in learning how to survive bachelorhood. Students learn how to sew bar-b-que aprons, how to do their laundry, rent apartments and read menus. There is also a unit on desert survival where the students learn how to cope with emergency situations. The Home Economics Department also plans guest speakers and field trips to enhance the curriculum. During Child Development Class, Micky Collins, far left, and Pat Burke, far right, instruct children in educational games.

Students Discover World Beyond Classroom Q' W .ig I dv? Junior Bill Bruin adjusts the focus on the department's new six inch reflector telescope, which is to be used for star gazing sessions. Biology student Rod Topel checks instructions before beginning his experiment. Although only one year of science is required, this department has much to offer anyone who stays longer. There are 14 different classes from which to choose and a variety of interests to pursue. Classes range from three levels of Earth Science to Physics, Chemistry and Ad- vanced Placement Biology. Also included are geology, ecology, biogeography and space science. Many innovations have been made to further the learning process and the department has also acquired several new pieces of equipment, which it hopes will enable students to probe subjects in much geater depth. These new additions include a 55 gallon aquarium, several biological models, a reflector telescope and a very impressive Sl, 500 phase contrast micro- scope, with which students can actually take pictures and movies of the specimens they are viewing. Accordingto Mr. James Heinrichs, department chairman, This school's equip- ment and facilities exceed even those in some of the colleges around the state. as Q V 'V li Eg, X if 1 Y Xi l S . is f,.
