Important Personnel Provide Much Mr. William Hajel Guidance Director The Guidance Department is an indis' pensible one at any school, and Burrell is no exception. Aside from aiding students in getting jobs, planning for future educa- tion, and administering necessary tests, the counselors' job is also one of giving advice to the student. This year, Burrell's guidance department began a unique pro- gram to help influence non-college bound students toward vocational training as a possible choice after completing high school. The school nurse's job is to maintain high health standards among all the stu- dents at Burrell. The enormous task of keeping individualized health records of each student is also essential.

Burrell also boasts a clean, well-equipped health room. ,i tk Q Mrs. Sue Petherick Guidance Counselor 'C E E 5 i ,sip ,Q Mrs. Louise Lanfaloni Mrs. Dorothy Brackin School Nurse P'
