Attention all sophomores and juniors: Please be aware that there is a missing class from the master schedule for next year. Independent Living is being offered second semester, 1st hour, on Tuesday and Thursday. This elective is an excellent class as you get closer to graduation as it prepares you to move out on your own. You will receive two practical arts credits for this class. In addition, don’t forget about our year long programs in interior design and fashion design. These project oriented classes are perfect for anyone interested in these two design career fields. Please be aware that you need to sign up for both semesters as they are year-long programs.
