lei Courses Vary in Business Department About half of the student body had a class in the business department. Courses offered for the students were Typing I and Il, Shorthand I and ll, Business Law, General Busi- ness, Bookkeeping I and Il, Note- hand, Recordkeeping, and Funda- mentals of Business English. Also provided for the senior students were Vocational Office Education, Cooperative Business Education and Diversified Cooperative Training. These classes lasted about three hours every day and contained all business courses. Mrs. Linda Peacock, who was on leave last year, was back this year. Although there were no new busi- ness teachers this year the business department was well supplied with teachers and materials. Individual equipment was used by the business classes so that the ad- vanced students could go on. , rf .

Via As a part of driving range instruction students try their skill at parallel parking without knocking do wn those bright red and yellow markers. A new unit was added to Driver's Education making it possible to have three fulltime instructors. Coach Bill Long was added as the third teacher. The 400 Driver's Education students and 100 summer Driver's Education students drove in the north parking area. The school hoped to have a new driving range next year. There were few requirements for taking Driver's Education. The stu- dents had to have been 15 years old so that they could obtain a restricted license, and they each had to pass a physical examination. Driver's Education included four areas of instruction. They were class- room instruction, simulation, driv- ing range, and road driving. .ril N . . it 8 . MR.
