5 .fi n f 64166 0111160 ora The counselors of Argo High are a group of teachers who perform very valuable services for us high school students. Their work starts when we enroll for our freshman year and does not end even when our senior year is over. In general our counselors have four main objectives: 1, To help students choose the courses and subjects best fitted to their interests, abilities, and needs, 2. To fill the students' need for adult friends in the school, who are personally interested in them, 3. To provide an accepting atmosphere, rather than one of moral censure, thus gaining respect and confidence of each student, 4. To exhaust all possible means to keep in school the less successful and the less well-adjusted students, ' who have a tendency to drop out of school. ' To carry out these goals the counselors perform a variety of eitacting duties: 1. Enrollments and schedule changes 2. Consultations with parents, students, doc administrators, and teachers 3. Counseling failures 4. Testing programs and making profile charts 5. Vocational and scholastic guidance tors, nurses, 1 6. College, scholarships, and job applications 7.
