Full Program Last year was the first time we strictly adhered to this program; pro-gram; hence, the first time that thefull amount of financial assistance as-sistance was received from the . EDITOR'S NOTE : This I in the eighteenth in a series of articles written by Superintendent Superin-tendent J. C. Moffitt of Pro-vo Pro-vo school district in collaboration collabor-ation with George VV. SeJdl, Evening Herald staff writer, designed to give a better understanding un-derstanding of how Provos boys and girls are being educated, edu-cated, what educational policy is being followed, and why this course is being taken. , government. We increased the personnel and more than doubled the capacity of the homemaking department at the high school. The government paid the $1,200 renovizing and enlarging cost. We have started the homemaking homemak-ing courses with the beginning of the junior high school years. In so far as possible, it is the plan to make the work on the junior high school level or at least a part of it become a required course. The instruction at this stage is more exploratory and attempts to give the girl a vision of the entire en-tire field. Each junior high school maintains an extensive, distinctly distinct-ly modern homemaking department, depart-ment, equipped like present-day homes; instructors carry full-time teaching loads and there has been seme urge to increase the personnel. per-sonnel. Enlarging Field Senior high school work is more advanced; tends to be more nearly vocational although much of the work here is exploratory and tends to be of the appreciation apprecia-tion type. Home economics courses within high school are not required but should be taken by most girls. One of the distinctive changes in the homemaking field recently is the enlargement of subject-matter covered: "In addition to teaching teach-ing foods and clothing skills," writes one of the instructors, "and technics on a practical basis, the student may receive help and guidance in such phases as child care, mothercraft, social adjustment adjust-ment problems, household economics, eco-nomics, interior decorating, home management, and family relationships rela-tionships ... a girl may fail as a homemaker even though she may be a splendid cook or seamstress, seam-stress, therefore we are trying to guide her to see the value of a richer background for homemaking." homemak-ing." Boys Classes 1 One recent high school innovation innova-tion in the homemaking section has been a course for boys. It gives much promise. The plan is to teach the boy his responsibility for home and family life. Our prediction is that shortly there will be courses provided wherein boys and girls may study together togeth-er many of the problems common to both sexes in the homemaking fields. One of the units creating considerable con-siderable interest at the high school has been diet study as carried car-ried out experimentally with the use of white rats. Students have concretely observed effects of a desirably-balanced diet contrasted contrast-ed to diets similar in quantity but lacking some of the vital food elements. Another has been work in child care by actual and practical prac-tical care of small children. Splendid Splen-did cooperation has been received from townspeople in this field. Home Cooperation The program continues through the entire year, necessitating extensive ex-tensive home projects on the students' stu-dents' parts, carried on under teacher supervision.
