1, u iffy ' w r ll ,vvl ,., is ,a- 's Trinity was fortunate to have classes to help one's career get started. One such class was D.E.C.A., or Distributive Education Clubs of America. This class was geared toward marketing and distribution. ln order to prepare students for the various competitions to be entered, they attended a leadership conference for youth in Glen Rose. To end the year, an Employer-Employee Banquet was held in honor of the Employers. This year the Future Homemakers of America had such a large and active group they were forced to be separated in- to four sub-divisions, each division being headed by a Home-Economics teacher. Though each division held in- dividual meetings, together they created many projects like visiting nursing homes and adopting Grandparents. The Future Business Leaders of America are an organiza- tion that promotes office skills for students with clerical aspirations. The FBLA was involved in several activities in addition to the school store they sponsored in order to help students obtain school supplies in times of need. They helped handicapped children by co-sponsoring a Halloween party for them and they attended a special convention dur- ing March.

A third group, Vocational Opportunities Clubs of Texas, entered area competitions in March to be a member of VOCT, one had to be enrolled in CVAE CO-OP. The meetings were held bi-monthly during their CVAE CO-OP class. VOCT displayed their spirit by constructing a float for homecoming.
