FACULTY New to the faculty this fall were Mrs. Mathilclzi Petrie, commercial, Mr. W. lf. lVlauermann, journalism, Miss Carol Cornish, home relations, and Mr. -lack Allison, chemistry. Because of a rearrangement of curriculum, Miss Dickey was in charge of the girls' physical education department, which had always had two staff members before. In the agriculture department Mr. Gaumer was added to operate the new farm shop on which the school district has spent some 212,000 Because Wliatcom County is a heavy producer of grain, eggs, butter, strawberries, and vegetables, the investment will pay rich dividends in scientific information for farmers. Tl-IE FACULTY AND THE STUDENT One of the common criticisms leveled at high schools is that all students are treated as pieces of machinery-processed the same and disposed of the same. The careful guid- ance system that has been built up in our school makes such a criticism invalid. Through the efforts of the guidance staff, comprised of Mrs. Peterson, chief, Miss Dennis, Miss Dillon, and Mrs. Nichols, and often the principal and vice principal, who are constantly called into conference, each student is tested both in his sophomore and junior years and discusses the results of the tests with his adviser. Mrs. Button in her career planning offers opportunity for personal investigation of vocations. Students who, for one reason or another, are behind the average, are encouraged to take special courses in Fnglish or history, and in regular classes they are given tutoring by the teachers. The Bellingham High student is not a machine-he is definitely an individual whom the faculty are trying to prepare for rliar carnival of life, which is sometimes gay but more often serious.
