Ceaseselers Expert advice guided youthful minds Supervision and guidance for every student was a vital function in our school system. Months before the l965-l966 school year began, counselors were kept busy organizing and pre- paring information on school enrollment schedules, and orientation for the sophomores. Records were kept on each student, containing a complete history of his school background. Under the direction of Mr. Gerald Morrison, guidance coordinator, the counselors of South High advised Colonels in making decisions concerning schedule changes, selection of colleges and also helped students to solve per- sonal problems. These men and women instilled confidence in the students helping them to reach emotional maturity.
