QW TW? T T mt' Counselor encourages students to use abilities The counselors have the closest contact with the student body of Seaholm. lt is up to them to see that each student is given the opportunity to succeed to the best of his abilities in his high school years. The counselors see each of their students as individuals, with individual interests, abilities, and problems. Each student meets with his counselor at least twice a year to discuss scheduling, activities, and problems at school and at home. The counselors must encourage students to strive to do their best work and to develop good study habits. They must see that their counselees take courses suitable to their abilities and in- terests, and hours are spent working out the right solution for each student. The counselors are also responsible for aiding students in choosing colleges, and for providing the necessary information and applications. They aid counselees in finding college maiors and suitable careers. The Seaholm counselors are friendly and understanding people, always willing to discuss problems and answer questions.
