Summary

Beaver Island offered adult-education classes in accounting, sewing, and typing during the 1971–72 school year under the supervision of Sister Rita Wenzlick. The November 1971 Beaver Beacon reports seven accounting students, eight in sewing, and four in typing, with classes continuing until April.

Evidence and limits

The source gives enrollment counts and a broad duration but no schedule, fees, curriculum, classroom, or complete instructor list. The dates are therefore kept at approximate fall 1971 through April 1972 precision.
