With two thousand students to cope with, the guidance department had to expand its headquarters and broaden the scope of its program. The organi- zation of students' schedules, their ability to graduate by allowing for the minimum number of credits, their ad- vance preparation for college, sched- uling tests, handling scholarship infor- mation formed quite a heavy load for the counselors aside from their pri- mary job of personal or group counsel- ing and keeping in close touch with the students. Providing military infor- mation, so important in this new age of the neoring-universal draft, and co- sponsoring such important and worth- while events as Career Night, College Night, and the teen-age Christmas drive through the work of the guid- ance committee pack their already full schedules even fuller as do students who foil to make up their mind about what courses to take until the middle of the semester and, as does the ti- tanic task of stretching too few rooms or teachers to provide the courses that the students need and want. Always typing forms, checking records, eval- uating, improving procedures, reaching out to advise and help, the guidance counselors form the vital core of every student's life at Cox. Guidance Department Expands to Meet Demands of Growing Student Body Mr. Payne, Guidance Counselor for the Junior Closs. Miss Price, Guidonce Counselor for the Sophomore Class. Mrs. Knight, Guidance Counselor for the Senior Class. Miss Hopkins, Guidance Coun- selor for the Prc-Freshmon and Freshman Classes.
