Mitchell Mrs Evelyn F., Home Economics. B.S., Longwood College. ,, 1. 5 E I I l it oooo s eg ti intl -s ,.o Home Ee Home Making Ideals and Know How The study of home economics is of value to students enrolled in all high school pro- grams-academic, business, vocational, and general. Since every girl is a potential home- maker, work of this type not only helps her to develop as a person, but also to prepare for the most important of all vocations-- homemaking. Our Home Economics Department offers courses in food and nutrition, child care, hous- ing, nursing care, clothing, and home man- agement. This program is open to both boys and girls.
