Shop Classes Provide Exploration The vocational area provides occu- pational exploration and experimenta- tion experience to students. In this area students may choose from such claves as wood shop, metal shop, and drafting. In recent years classes in this section have been opened to girls. Wood Shop I is a class in learning to use hand tools and machines. It is taught almost entirely by the project method. Wood Shop II uses advanced methods. In Metal Shop I, fundamentals are taught with some experience on equip- ment. Advanced Metal Shop is restricted to oxy-acetylene and arc welding. Drafting I familarizes the student with drafting tools, and the basics of the an. It leads into Drafting II with architectural and electronic drafting. 10

Sorry Spring Season Sends Students In Side, Out Side Physical education for both boys and girls continued throughout the year, but stu- dents seemed to enjoy the fall and spring seasons when they could participate in outside activities. The somewhat extraordinary weather this spring has, how- ever, been a problem for teach- ers and students. First, spring was slow com- ing. Then, when everyone thought it was here to stay, snow forced activities back inside. Then the outdoor equipment was brought out again. The wind blew, and archers had to give up. It snowed again. The ground dried, and boys geared up for softball. Archery targets were set up again, tennis rackets were uncovered, and the soccer and volleyball equipment was issued. And then, it was back to the gym - inside once again. Girls played murder ball. Boys high jumped. Bowling was a class activity earlier in the spring when no one really expected to be able to get outside. Busing to this activity, unlike other areas of the country, was not forced - students had the option of walk- ing from Super Bowl if they 12 missed their ride.
