The Assistant Housemaster in each building is responsible for insuring that both peace and tranquility reign throughout the house. Each building in Brockton High School may be subjected to problems or dilemmas. It is through the harmo- nious interaction of the students and faculty that many of these difficulties are resolved or avoided. Mr. Zoino, the Assistant Housemaster in the Green Building, defines his responsibilities, to administer to the needs of the Green House. More specifically, Mr. Zoino handles student problems and attendance, encourages student morale, evalu- ates the staff, re- views the curricu- lum, and super- vises all activities in t h e G r e e n House. Mr. Zoino has always pro- vided the Green House with a well run administration. Mr. Zoino is a man who is always wil- ing to listen to a problem, either academic or per- sonal. He has be- come friends with many in the class of 1983 and would like to offer this ad- vice: Be honest with yourself and always strive for those kinds of things that will benefit your fellow man and thereby benefit yourself.

Advising the Class of 1983 for life and its challenges, Mr. Puliafico says, Try to get as much as possible from everyth- ing you do. Don't do anything haphazardly, you'll only hurt yourself in the long run. Anything that's worth doing is worth doing right, so always try as hard as you possibly can.

Surely the ex- periences he has e n c o u n t e r e d have taught him many things, in- cluding the disci- pline and deter- mination needed to keep a House, which consists of both students and faculty, well run. The duties of the Assistant Housemaster are many. Mr. Bussolari states that his responsibilities deal mostly with discipline and class as well as school attendance. Mr. Bussolari strongly believes that Brockton High School is the best high school in the country. He knows that B.H.S. has many academic offerings and opportunities.

GUIDANCE The Guidance Department offers a supportive service to all of the students at Brockton High School. Whether the problem is academic, social or family related, the Guidance Department is always ready to lend an understanding ear and offer advice. Under the leadership of Mr. Gentile, the Guid- ance Departments main objective is to offer sup- port and allow the student to utilize their poten- tial. In doing so, the department helps the stu- dent gain future success. The councilors advise the students on testing dates, schedule adjust- ments, and college decisions. Brockton High School offers a student a realistic view of life. Success is often theirs for the taking, but the ride is not always smooth. The councilors at Brockton High School try to make this ride as unobstructed as possible. Mr. Gentile offers this advice to the class of 1983: If you do anything in your life, always be will- ing to listen to the one next to you. No matter where you find yourself, just because you're there, doesn't make you an authority in the world. Mary E. Ronan Tl' AVT4-7rd-lpn? fflfigiol ' ,tariff ' P Jfafwpilmi J-+++ J' b !
