Besides her duties as principal, Sister M Ursula is occupied with teaching Spanish I and II and directing the Sacred Heart Group aagafa 5 iteafo 'za To have fine performances, excellent directors are needed. The S. F. A. di- rectors are the faculty members, guid- ing, advising, and suggesting ways and means to polish their students' parts. When the students enter the academy, they are amateur actresses. The teachers turn these amateurs into professionals by instilling within them the knowledge they need for perfec- tion in their future roles in life. Daily rehearsals are held by these di- rectors in the various classrooms. They conduct practices in religion, langu- ages, mathematics, science, and social studies. Just as the directors ponder over ways and means to make their scripts more pleasing to the public, the Sis- ters attempt to make their productions more pleasing to God. Sister M. Francesca enthusiastically shows Sister M. Louise and Mrs. Rose Riley her plan for a new homemaking project.
