To help sophomores adjust to high school, a number of small discussion groups were set up. These groups enabled sophomores to get to know their counselors. Juniors and their parents attended a college informa- tion night in the spring. Applying to a college, financial aid programs, and how to choose a college were the main topics covered at the meeting. ln the fall, counselors and representatives from col- leges met with seniors interested in attending a trade school, college or university.
