Helping ls Their Role Behind-the-scenes, but with important roles to play in students' lives, are Ash- brook's three guidance counselors, From the time ninth-graders register for high school to that magic night when diplomas are given out, the counselors are instrumen- tal in helping students choose courses, ca- reers, and colleges. Although paper work accumulates in mountainous stacks, they are ever-willing and ever-capable. Whether talking to whole classes, small groups or individual students, they are extremely ef- fective. Miss Pendleton, Mr. Moore, and Mrs. Green help each student write his own life-script and prepare for the changes his life will hold. Robert Davis, Charles Elliott, Lander Barnhill, Armand Mando, Bill Wooten, and Elaine jenkins make up Ashbrook's Advisory Board which holds monthly meetings concerning students. Mrs. Green was chosen N.C. Counselor of the Year by the N.C. School Counselor Association. Our guidance counselors, David Moore, lanet Green, and Barbara Pendleton, are always eager to help students. 92!
