The Black and Gold 1977
Vocationally oriented classes serve individuals everyday needs
Preparation for vocational work and general knowledge of things that happen everyday life were the common bonds in the Industrial, Agricultural Arts, and Home Economics departments.
Courses such as Automotive Mechanics, Metals, Graphic Arts, and Woods gave experiences in the intricacies of each field.
Many students submitted projects to the annual Motor Building Contest at Ala Moana Center in February and to the Industrial Arts Fair and Scale Model Building Contest in March.
Agricultural Arts and Horticulture I and II proved very popular electives as all three classes were closed during registration with a total enrollment of 110 students Of the three, Agricultural Arts was most popular.
Curriculum and teaching methods remained much the same as the previous year, when students farmed their own garden plots and took home their own produce. There was a scarecrow building mini-contest, offering cash prizes for the best.
Home Economics offered various courses to educate students to be good family members as well as efficient homemakers.
Family Foods, Food Service, Personality and Dress, Family Clothing and Child Care covered every aspect of family living for the interests of any MHSer.
