Counselors are faced with daily traumas that they must deal with. They chose to be counselors because they enjoy working with students on a personal level and on a one- to-one basis. Each Counselor has a specific duty that they are in charge of. I found I spent a lot of time with students outside the class, listening to them and assisting them with personal decisions ect., and enjoyed it. I went on in counsel- ing field rather than my teaching area, History and political Sciencef' stated Margret Mullen, Senior Counselor. Mullen has been Big Sky's senior counselor for the past four years. She has developed an organized system to assist seniors in applying for scholarships and deciding areas that they Wish to work toward. Throughout the year Mullen met with every senior to discuss their plans for the future. . , The students and staff have an attitude of cooperation, feelings for each other and their rights as individuals, along with a dedication and loyality to the school and the - AP '71, fr jj-' people is what makes the differencefstated Ernie Ibey.

Is it important for students to take a foreign language during high school years? Yes. It helps the student better unders- tand the English language and also the foreign cultures, stated George Sendon, Spanish teacher and Speech and Debate coach. The foreign language department of Big Sky, has organizations such as German Club and International Club. The German Club is directed by Walt Graf, Big Sky's German teacher, and the lntemational Club is organized by Peggy Patrick and Carolyn Brock, both of whom are French teachers at Big Sky. Understanding the English language seems harder for some students. To help those students learn, Big Sky offers special reading and special education classes. This department is specially organized to help the students individually and at thier own pace, and has proved to be helpful. Spanish Teacher and speech and debate coach George Sendon relaxes at a day at the Missoula County Fairi Walt Graf, German Club adviser and German teacher, watches the parking lot seventh hour for students who tend to take a little time off.
