Business courses at Donegal will
help later
Students at Donegal High
School are currently in the
process of selecting their
program of study ‘for the
1977-78 school year. The
business education depart-
ment teachers have pre-
pared the following infor-
mation as an aid for
parents and those students
who are interested in
choosing business subjects
as a part of their 1977-78
program of studies. —ed.
Those students who plan
to attend college might well
be practical and elect
business subjects that will
enable them to acquire a
salable or personal-use
skill. Typing and shorthand
will help in taking notes
and typing termpapers, or
will enable them to earn
money by typing for other
students (SOc to $1 per
page).
Often students are un-
able to complete four years
of college and are forced
into the labor market. High
school business subjects
certainly would be an
added skill and a great
help in obtaining employ-
ment in the tight job
squeeze.
Notehand and family fin-
ance, data processing, ac-
counting I, business Eng-
lish, business machines,
and office practice are
other subjects that should
be seriously considered by
college bound students.
Check the want-ads in
the newspaper; talk to
teachers, parents, quidance
counselors, friends with
jobs and friends without
jobs, and the present
seniors. Ask former gradu-
ates what subjects they
would take if they could do
it all over again.
The following selectior. of
business subjects is sug-
gested if students plan to
obtain entry-level employ-
ment after graduation in
the area of accounting:
Grade 9—typing I, general
business training; Grade
10—typing II,- shorthand I,
business mathematics;
Grade 1l1—accounting I,
business machines and
data processing, CIVIC;
Grade 12—accounting II,
business law, clerical office
practice, CIVIC.
Prospective clerical work-
‘ers should” choose these
subjects in addition to
required classes: Grade 9—
typing I; Grade 10—typing
II, general business train-
ing, business mathematics;
Grade 11—shorthand I,
accounting I, business
machines and data proces-
sing, CIVIC; Grade 12—
clerical office practice,
business English and busi-
ness arithmetic, business
law, CIVIC.
Students preparing for
stenographic work would
need these subjects: Grade
9—typing I; Grade 10—
typing II, general business
training, business mathe-
matics; Grade 1l1-—short-
hand I, accounting I, busi-
ness machines rand data
processing, CIVIC; Grade
12—shorthand II, business
English and business arith-
metic, secretarial office
practice, business law,
CIVIC,
The above subject se-
quence is suggested as
ideal; if students do not
choose to enroll in a
particular subject during
the grade listed, they may
pick it up the following
year if all other prerequi-
sitites are met.
This information is pre-
sented as a guideline and
students are in no way
obligated to follow these
suggestions; but they
should consider this outline
before making their selec-
tions.
Valentine Day
by Chester Wittell
The second month gives us a day
When all the shops and stores display
An article which we shall find
Especially for us designed.
I play the faithful lover’s part
And send my love a candied heart,
Gift-wrapped in paper colored blue—
The color which we say is true.
Although ’tis purely sentimental
And the nexus accidental,
The use, it seems, though apt and quaint,
Has naught to do with any saint.
A curious thought which—false or true—
Depends upon one’s point of view;
So take the pill and swallow it,
Or spit it out, as you see fit.
But as for me, I house a doubt
Of something we should think about:
Though I send her a valentine,
How do I know that she is mine?
From ‘‘Garnered from the Garden Spot.”
