Industrial Arts Home Ec Photography Industrial Arts department includes: Gen- eral Shop, Woods II. Woodworking Skills, Mechanical Drawing, Architectural Draft- ing, Farm Welding, and Carpentry Build- ing Construction. In the Industrial Arts department there are a lot of students keeping busy building things. A student is taught the basic skills of wood working and have a chance to build a project of their choice. In Architectural Drafting students have a chance to build a house of their dreams. They draw up com- plete plans of their own design. The Home Economics department in- cludes: Consumer Education, Independent Living, Housing and Foods, Textiles and Advanced Clothing, Family Living, Interior Design, and Child Development. Consumers Ed. is required for all students to take. Consumers Ed. is a relativly fun class. It teaches you how to manage your money. This is something that every stu- dent needs to know because money is a big factor in everyone's life. I think Independent Living is a very im- portant course also. I feel that every student should have a breif covering of the home, like: family relations, clothing, home fur- nishings, child development, nutrition, and goods. A person needs to know something on each of those areas before they get out on their own. Yes, it is possible to make on your own with out these things but it sure would help you a lot if you knew a few facts about them. Photography is a fun and exciting class. It is designed into two distinct parts. In the first part you get to learn all about the cam- era, film and printing. In the second part you get to put your skill to work. You get to take pictures of whatever you want and de- velop them. Tammy Koppa using her skills in shop is thinking very hard. Home Ec classroom cabinets get cleaned out, and are getting ready for use. Teri Shultz got used to carrying the camera around her neck. 10

Library L.D. Social Sciences The library is run by our librar- ian, Mrs. Harvey. She teaches Li- brary Science I, Library Science II, and Audiovisual Science. The Li- brary Science class is to teach the student how to work in the library. In Library Science II, students do advanced level of library work, e.g. working with card catalog, compil- ing bibliographies, doing research, and other similar library duties. The library is always open and very useful for the student to use throughout the school day if a stu- dent may need some books to refer back to a certain subject or project. L.D., which stands for learning lab, is provided to individual stu- dents who have special educational needs. Students may take courses in any academic area or subject. Students are placed at a level in which they can function comfort- ably. The Social Science Department includes: U.S. History, U.S. Gov- ernment, American Problems, In- dian History and Culture, Criminal Justice and World History. Mrs. Harvey is hard at work in the Library. L.D. students are getting help from their teacher. Jr. Students are hard at work in Mr. Hollo- man's History class. Art class is very busy and working very hard on their projects.
