18, P.E., Drivers Ed DRIVERS EDUCA TION, CLASS AIDE, PHYSICAL EDUCA TION Students Learn Basics of Driving and importance of Physical Fitness Elementary class aide was a new class offered to interested high school stu- dents who spent one class period a day working in grades one through five help- ing students with their assignments, listening to reading lessons, and grading papers. Physical education and health classes held many sports activities. The girls spent much time learning modern dance, archery, tumbling, and trampo- line. The boys played basketball, volley- ball, and decathlon. Both classes took nine weeks of classroom health studies. Due to a shortage of teachers, drivers education was almost dropped from the curriculum in September. When the math position was reinstated and tea- cher staff increased, drivers ed was then offered and taught by Ron Neher. Freshmen who had reached age fifteen were pleased to learn that they too would be given a chance to learn the necessary driving skills needed to drive a car over the roads of Powers. In the past the class had been limited to sopho- mores.
