BUSINESS Business students are among those who share daily their time and talent with the school and community. Many students plan to pursue careers in business after high school. The subjects offered prepare students for future jobs upon graduation or for further training. Courses include shorthand, typewriting, bookkeeping, and office practice. Students may elect cooperative office practice as an aid to improving themselves and getting actual job training. Mrs. D. F. Murphy (center) instructs a class in personal typing. This course is designed for the student who is not in the business curriculum but would want to learn typing for his personal use.
