Mrs. Merrick and Mrs. Dolven, after attending a seminar over the summer, introduced the Cortez Peters unit, a diagnostic method of improving speed and accuracy in typing. Each student takes a five minute timing and with the results they type specific drills for their individual problems. The beginning typing students did better than the advanced because they learned to type letter by letter while the advanced students were already set in their ways. The accuracy level of all students was outstanding, said Mrs. Merrick. Also in February the student council held a design contest to improve the cafeteria. Tony Nasser, an Art II student, won the competition. He also helped draw out his large graphic design onto the walls of the cafeteria. Tony also received 5525 from the student council for the contest, said Mrs. Luther, art teacher. Academics And Activitie 23
