Although many students took the Career Center, R.O.P., and the Student Store for granted: they were an important facet of Del Campo. Students have always been faced with the decision of what to do after they graduate, the Career Center gave them the chance to explore the many opportunities open to them. Mary Fryer ran the Career Center in her own special way, adding a flair with live greenery. R.O.P. fRegional Occupational Programl was started in the San Juan Unified School District in 1973. lt was a joint effort between Sacramento County and the San Juan Unified School District. ln 1973 the 1970-73 R.O.P. alumni were surveyed on their success in finding jobs. 71M of those polled had found jobs in the field in which they were trained.
