Practical Arts The Practical Arts Department, as its title implies, attempts to give the student mastery of several basic skills. Various courses are offered. Typing is a rapid method of writing almost necessary for future secretaries or college-bound students. Bookkeeping is a skill that can be applied to almost every facet of business, adjusting family finances, managing the wealth of business concerns, and keeping bank rec- ords in order. Metal Shop, Wood Shop, and Drafting give the student the experience of working with various materials and the chance to plan and design works of their own. Driver's Education is a must for the stu- dent who wishes to become a good, safe driver. This course emphasizes safety in driving by teaching the student not only how to drive, but the best, safest method pos- sible. The students get not only classroom instruction, but individual behind-the-wheel training. ABOVE: A student in Driver's Education obtains be- hind the wheel training in the classroom. BELOW: A student begins work on his own creation.

JOHN LANCASTER TABER 24 Vocational Arts The Vocational Technical-Department plays a major role not only in the Westport curriculum, but in the future of many West- port students. The Commercial Art section of the de- partment provides training in illustration, layout, and design. Graphic Arts teaches the student various aspects of printing: machine operation, layout, and camera and photo work. The Electronics division presents work and training with theory, which can open doors to boundless opportunity. The air conditioning and refrigeration program affords the student a chance to learn the fine points of these two skills — both vast fields providing many good jobs. Future secretaries or businessmen par- ticipate in the clerical and secretarial prac- tice courses. In this block students learn filing, typing, office machine operation, and other tasks common to any office sit- uation. The Vocational-Technical department offers a unique opportunity to any Westport student. With well qualified instructors and excellent equipment one can actually learn an intricate skill and, upon gradu- ation, go into their field with little or no fur- ther training. Training in the Vocational Arts sometimes requires long hours of practice to develop the skill necessary
