Twice each semester each counselor tries to meet with his counselee to discuss future plans and schedule changes. According to Dr. Allan Dawson, guidance chairperson, “I think we have the best staff of counselors at Edsel now than in the past. Edsel Ford students are very good students. They are very positive.” He also added jokingly, ‘‘As much as I enjoy my job, I always look foward to Friday!” Mr. Robert Munson also added, ‘i love being a counselor! I’ve met so many fantastic students.” 28

GxpeRiments in LeaRninq... Students are required to take four sememsters of science courses before graduating from Edsel Ford. Among these are courses in biology, chemistry, and physics, with an optional course in horticulture also available. These classes are designed to give students a general background in the basic fields of science so that they may better understand the world in which they live. If students wish to further their interests in any of these areas, advanced classes and extra-curricular activities exist. “Biology class helped me get interested in animals and nature in general,” noted Aaron Boatin, 10, son of Department Chairperson Dr. Herm Boatin.
