Well-Rounded Students People are the prime concern of Mrs. Louise Caldwell and Mr. Gene Van Matre, school coun- selors and psychology teachers. As counselors they help people with problemsg as teachers of psychology they teach understanding of people. They assist students with personal prob- lems, arrange four year schedules, arrange schedule changes, and when the time comes, help a student plan for the future. Aptitude, intelli- gence, and vocational tests are given by the counselors to determine in what field a student is most adept. They help a student apply for ad- mission to a college. Information on scholar- ships, grants, and loans is available in their offices. They also offer advice on technical training. These counselors find time in their busy schedules to teach psychology ---- the science of the mind. Students have varied reactions to a statement made by Mr. Van Matre in the 6th hour psychology class. Front row: Jack Spratte, Barb Vierheller, Pat Higginbotham, Mary Lou Schwartz.
