Screeching trains, crowded. buses, bang-- ing car doors, fast-changing traffic lights- these are some of the sights and sounds that' keep St. Patrick girls moving eachimorning on their way to school.

Is there any other school with express- Ways in its backyard, a railroad station down the street, and a Holiday Inn in con- struction progress one block away?

But in the end, it is each student who must accept for herself the joy and the responsibility of being a Christian. fx ' x 1 .N When students care enough to really argue about an author's meaning or a oharaoter's mo tive, the English teacher knows that her class has caught on. Although discussion is a favorite means of expression in class, however, students learn that there are four parts to every English course: reading, writing, speaking, listening. english H-NNN..

Biology students have learned to con- sider more closely things they have taken for granted. A leaf, for example, takes on new dimensions in Biology class. I 'W .

Watching the signs-- minus and plus--is difficult at first, but the mastering of this and other concepts in Mathematics is the students' first step towards abstract thinking. For upperclassmen, Geometry offers a challenge that--eagerly or reluctantly-- must be met and accepted. I it is- . .. Piiisii' commercial classes Typewriters click, pencils glid over shorthand notebooks, and numbers multiply rapidly as the tabulator paper lengthens -- commercial students are learning that ao- ouraey is a must during skill-building classes in preparation for future business careers or present part-time jobs. if ,af 2' 57' home economics One of the most beautiful areas in the school, the Home Economics department is thoroughly equipped with every help possible to aid students in becoming true Christian homemakers. In classes consisting of theory as well as practice, Home Ec students are divided into two groups: clothing and foods. By the end of the course, students are expected to have acquired these two ba- sic elements of good homemakers.

According to Mrs. Ramos, the aims of physical education are to promote, through total body movement primarily on the play level, the health and general Welfare of all students, and to guide them in becoming more effective individuals physically, mentally, and socially. its , 1 .f,1,.. ,ff I ww, J, ,-,k K, ,, . va 'Q mx Ii . . .Q W 153+ 5 21 A fmiflf J' fn 1 ff 30 ,fmx vm!
