The role of the counselor at AHS has become one that has many different responsiblities. Along with the need to inform students concerning gradu- ation requirements, the counselor deals with students with personal problems, forecasting for classes, and provides communication between parents and teachers. This year a new concern has brought another challenge to the counseling department. The nation and President Reagan have called to attention the saat to reduce the problem of drugs in the country as well as the senile. A program to help students that are having problems with drugs is being looked at and put into motion. The counselors act to help these students deal with their problem and overcome it. Mr. Pollard provides a very impor- tant role to those Seniors that have plans for school beyond high school. In constant communiation with col- lege requirements and financial aid sources, he put many plans for the future in their proper perspectives and gave many Seniors hope for ca- reer opportunities.
