PHE!! pupil development Each student needs a home base while he is in high school. For students at Edsel Ford, this is found in Human Relations' classes. Usually, a student in Human Relations will have the same teacher and' classmates throughout his high school career. Because of their continuing con- tact, counselors come to know students well and serve them more effectively as advisers. Coun- selors assist individuals in adjustment and growth in educational, vocational, personal, and social areas. ln class, students gain those understandings which will help them in recog- nizing and dealing with the problems that are common to high school youth, and the problems they may encounter in their relations with people after high school. This continuing personal con- tact with counselors causes students to consider this their home base during high school. cE!:r'1'f?257i Fig' ' 'dl-in 'J rt 1 . will .'--Mn, -..
