DEAN OF GIRLS FOCUSES HER INTEREST ON BUILDING CHARACTER STRENGTHENING OUR LIVES WITH GUIDANCE Through the years our ultimate objective has remained before us --to excel. Thinking over the past, the road over which we have at last ascended, we must consider the remaining portion. As we consider this remaining portion, we must continue to cling, as previously, to the in- valuable information which has been imparted to us by our Guidance Director, Mrs. E. M. Green. Barry Lockett, a senior, pays visit to Mrs. Green for wise counseling concern- ing college requirements and personal achievements. In a new and purposeful period of intel- lectual growth, students have been aided by guidance in their adjustment to the many expectations of a changing society and world. Mrs. Effie M. Green, Assistant Princi- pal and Dean of Girls, confers with hun- dreds of students weekly in an effort to help them adjust to school life, solve prob- lems, and answer the many questions which plague the adolescent mind. Admin- istering test and keeping student records are additional guidance duties which must be performed by Mrs. Green. Consider that I laboured not for myself only, but for all them that seek my guidance. 5
