ADMINISTRATION . capable Mr. Valcos, an ardent Washburn tan, is a tirm believer that Icids today have more potential than ever betore. It didn't talce Mr. Vakos long to get into the swing ot things even though this was his tirst year at Washburn. As director ot student personnel, Mr. Valcos finds his duties are numerous and vigorous. Our new assistant principal serves as business adviser tor most school or- ganizations, as supervisor ot all evening activities, and as chiet disciplinarian. Another ot Mr. Vakos' duties is supervising the l.B.M. process tor our school. Betore coming to Washburn, Mr. Valcos had taught tor nine years at other schools, but he is now a devoted Miller. Washburn is fortunate to have three capable educa- tional and vocational counselors, Miss Christensen, Mr. Evenson, and Mr. Ohland. They are always willing to help students smooth out their school problems, schol- astic and personal. The counselors guide and direct the students in many ways. They help build student programs to suit various tuture plans, supervise the se- lection ot A.F.S. representatives, malce contacts tor students tor part-time jobs, supply intormation to help students decide on colleges and careers, and organize our testing program. Students with a question or prob- lems may tind the answer or solution in the counselors' otlice. Our counselors willingly provide guidance, direc- tion, and advice to all who seelc it. g Our new assistant principal, Mr. Harry N. Vakos Mr. Obert Evenson Miss Mabel Christensen Mr. Clarence Ohland

CLASS ES . . occelerofed For the past two years Washburn has ottered acceler- ated and enriched math courses tor above-average students who are college bound. By taking an acceler- ated math course, one can earn a year and halt's credit in one year. Sophomores who begin this course now will be able to take a year ot college math when they be- come seniors. The present seniors were able to take only one semester ot college math because the accelerated program was not in etlect when they were sophomores. Accelerated classes are given in geometry, advanced algebra, trigonometry, and solid geometry. Students in these classes are able to cover more advanced material and have the advantage ot a richer background in mathematics. It is hoped that in the tuture students will be given recognition by colleges and will be exempt trom tresh- man math. Acceleration leads to this. CLARENCE HEGG: Band, Orchestra. MRS.
