DE Gffers job Opportunities forStudents In his duties as Latte cuse. VOCATIONS .ts ndance regulator, Mr. Hunter checks Sidney Baker's ex- Koch l DE student Bill. Young stocks shelves at Raine's Bi-Rite. The Industrial Cooperative Training and the Distributive Education classes were two of Western's courses that pro- vided practical experience for the students. The ICT program, under Mr. jones, was a plan for training qualified juniors and Seniors in technical occu ations for a future career. The rogram was able to train studgents for future employment in the communi? bly finding part- time Lobs ort em, in addition to t eir regular classroom training.- The DE classes, under the guidance of Mr. Hunter, were designed to train both boys and girls for employment in any of several fields. The pro- gram enabled the students to secure jobs in such fields as wholesale and retail sales, restaurant work, and other diverse occupations. Features about the classes that the students particularly enjoyed were the fact that they left school at 12:12 and also the many field trips that the classes participated in. Thus, students in both the ICT and DE programs held many jobs in factories, hos- pitals, drug stores, and many other places throughout the community. This provided ex- cellent practical experience for the student to help him decide on a future career. .
