Development of the body goes hand in hand with that of the mind. This is realized in the two year requirement of physical education here at St. John, with matches held among the students in friendly competition. But knowing how the body functions is also necessary in knowing how to keep physically Ht. A year of health provides this knowledge. Reports and posters make up a large part of the class. No matter how much we learn ourselves, we still have need of the guidance of another. At St. John, our coun- selor, Mr. Nacida, helps out with expert advice and in- formation. Besides teaching all freshmen the basics of music, the music department also covers special guidance for those students with musical talent. Eighth period band provid- ed an excellent chance this year, for those students who had it, to practice daily without having to stay after. Special attention to ciach section separately, helped great- ly to advance each member's ability. Field trips to the park, film strips and discussions of techniques were the main tools of the art classes. Many hidden talents were brought forth and the students learn- ed to enjoy their creativity.
