The Home Economics Club, an organization of girls who are interested in every phase of homemaking, meets each week with girls doing such projects as they desire. These include cooking, sewing, and craft projects. There are approximately thirty-five active members from all four grades. Membership is open to anyone who is interested in taking an active part in club projects. The club also plans several social functions each year for members and their friends. It is the hope of the officers that this club may become a strong organization in Washington High School.

We learn the fundamentals of librarianship, help the librarian in taking care of the library and encourage our fellow students to use books more efficiently. One accomplishment this year has been the assuming of responsibility for the library for two periods each day. We entertained the faculty at Christmas time. We ourselves have had several pleasant social events. The success of the library is due, in large part, to the conscientiousness of each club member. Press Club Under the guidance of Miss Jensen and Miss Bierman the students in the Press Club assemble the school news which appears in The Washington Stai each week. They collect and submit news of club activities and articles to publicize social events of the school such as dances, parties, and money-raising campaigns. These students have gained valuable journalistic experience through the Left to Right: Dorothy Fowler, Miss Bierman, Jean Walsh, Joyce writing of their weekly articles.
