TEACHERS ' President — Jack Wright Secretary — Rita Adams OFFICERS FOR 1962-63 Vice President — Howard Taslitz Treasurer — Dennis Evans The El Rancho Teachers ' Club helps to provide for the representation of our faculty in various professional organizations and activities through our district- wide organization— The El Rancho Teachers ' Association. On campus, our member- ship continually works to improve the effectiveness of our educational program. In addition, we sponsor social activities for the teachers on this campus and pro- vide for numerous small services such as daily refreshments for the staff. Each year the El Rancho faculty also awards scholarships to several seniors. Funds for these scholarships are raised by the co-operative effort of the entire faculty. Last year the Teachers ' Club was able to offer four two hundred dollar scholarships to help further the college education of El Rancho graduates. Underlying all the activities and services of the El Rancho Teachers ' Club is a spirit of friendly co-operation and a desire to keep El Rancho the best. Each year the Teachers ' Club, representing the entire faculty, rededicates itself to those ends. 14

if ' ' :a J Mr. Gary Ness Mrs. Renee Smith Miss Lois Winter Mr. Richard Schwang Mr. Rodney Stepleton: Head Counselor THE RIGHT PATH This past year has been the first for three of the five counselors at El Rancho. The other two have become tried and true models of the type of guidance officers all schools need. Together they make a fine team for counseling and guid- ing the students along the lines of their future planning, according to the basic preparations de- veloped through the years of schooling. We all know that educational foundations have to be strong and well co-ordinated in order to enable us to choose and absorb future studies necessary to the final successful commitments to our chosen fields. (A house built upon sand cannot stand.) Tests are given to discover each student ' s best attributes, and strongest interests, and to help and guide the counselors in giving the right ad- vice. These tests tell them in which fields the students have an interest and in which fields their aptitudes lie, also enabling them to advise auxiliary studies and practical applications of such. Without this information and guidance, many students would never make the grade in the field best suited to them. We know that our counselors have our wel- fare at heart, and therefore they act always in our best interests. I SA P4 - '
