011-The-Job Training It was no wonder so many students were busy with such classes and clubs as auto mechanics, Reserved Officers Training Corps, vocational agriculture and Future Farmers of America. Vo-ag students learned animal sci- ence, plant science, soil science and agriculture mechanics. lt gave stu- dents a general knowledge of agricul- ture. To be in the club FFA, students had to be enrolled in vo-ag. FFA mem- bers used their skills outside of school. They entered animals in the state and county fairs, worked in machine shops, did welding and used their tech- niques in learning to farm land. ROTC was sponsored by the United States Army Junior ROTC. Class members learned patriotism, respect for their country, leadership, discipline and courtesy. They often had march- ing drills and inspection. For a field trip, they visited a military installation base. Auto mechanics was taught at the high school for three hours. The stu- dents learned by hands-on experience. They worked directly with cars sup- plied by customers outside the school. Class studies included car mainten- ance, engine parts, auto and engine safety and repair. These technical courses were not always the most popular with every- one, but very important to a select group of the student body. They played an important role as on-the-job training and provided the first step to- ward a better future. BRIAN WILLIAMS and Rudy Jackson put the finishing touches on the FFA bulletin board.
