Home Economics Is Helpful The home economics department consists of sewing, cooking, and many other useful skills that can be used in the home and the public as well. The students in the sewing class start out with something simple for the home and an easy garment for for themselves. As the year progresses the students advance to harder garments in order to learn all of the steps of sewing. The style show at the end of the year gives each student an opportunity to show others what she has accomplished. The four basic food groups are the first thing taught in the cooking class in home economics. The students learn to prepare complete meals that contain the basic four foods, and they also learn how to shop economically for these foods. Manners, etiquette, and other helpful hints are taught in this class to enhance the personality and appearance of each student. The home economics department also participated in the muscular sclerosis drive in order to help children to be cured and have the same opportunities as others.
