HeUpitu| Vow Tkc RwmI The impression of the counselors is felt by every student on the very first day of school. The counselors at D.H.S. play a very significant role in the education of each student at Dearborn High. They are not only interested in one as a student, but also as an individual. They are here to help and assist in any way possible. For the ninth grade students, they have classroom meetings which cover such topics as classroom orientation, study habits, self-evaluation, the marking system, progress reports, and report cards. In the tenth grade the counselors cover such things as graduation requirements, curriculum options, awareness of national tests, and the Michigan Educational Assessment Program. In the eleventh grade things such as college and vocational planning are talked about along with the ACT and the SAT. As a student enters their senior year, the counselor is there to aid in making decisions such as college selection, application procedures, college grants and loans, and meetings with college representatives.

Special! Kate The Special Education and Hearing Impaired programs at Dearborn High are very unique. Students from other cities come here in order to benefit from our qualified instructors. Students are integrated into the regular classrooms for certain subjects. Mr. Lawrence Pye and Mrs. Suzanne Skwarski head up the Dearborn High’s music department. Mr. Pye teaches classes such as Orchestra, Concert Band, Symphony Band, and Music Theory. Mrs. Skwarski instructs students in the areas of Concert Choir, Vocal Ensemble, and Mixed Chorus. Between these two individuals, D.H.S. has developed a very good music program throughout the years. They arrange for students to go to festivals, march in parades, and perform for various clubs and organizations. They provide a lively, musical atmosphere for not only the students involved in the program, but also for all of Dearborn High and the surrounding community. Larry Pye Band Department Chairman Suzanne Skwarski Choir The library is run by Lilian Segal and Muriel Bunch. They are assisted by several of the students here at D.H.S. Our library has quite a broad selection of reading material. The librarians help students in both finding the materials and showing them the best way to use them.
