Douglas High shop program grows with 81 students
From 28 students a couple of years ago the Douglas High shop program has climbed to 81 under H. M. Brooks. It has been cited by the State Department of Education, Trade and Industrial Education Service of Richmond and the American Industrial Arts Association of the University of Maryland. The class has completed over 220 individual projects and emphasizes group work including tractor repairs and installing safety devices. The shop handles home repair development, construction of new pieces, and restoration of old items, though space is tight at 31 by 33 feet with power units crowded together.
