Home economics is designed to formulate the skills that will aid in the management and planning of a home. Emphasis is placed on cooking, sewing, child care and practice in running a family.

Teachers in the Business Education Department believe that their stu- dents should have well-rounded courses. Students are encouraged to supplement their commercial train- ing by studying foreign languages, art and the sciences.
