 2 New A.D. adds input Providing extra services for students was the responsibility of the counselors and the athletic director. In his first year as athletic director, Mr. Peltier set up the usual schedules but he also wanted to arrange some special programs for coaches and athletes. One successful program was the workshop on the care and prevention of injuries. Other services available to students were arranged by the guidance department. Career information and guests were set up through their department. Mrs. Leslie was also available as a resource for teachers, as well as an advocate of chemical free living in general. Special groups were planned for interested students and so were drug-related programs useful in regular classes. Students used services at a steady rate. Donna Nickerson Doug Peltier Dan Poepard 23

 Art is visual and needs to be seen to be appreciated ' Art is a creative outlet and needs to be experienced to be appreciated. The art department tried to combine these two themes. A decrease in enrollment occurred in art as a result of the shift in emphasis to math and science. Intense societal pressure to produce in technology has created this effect. But the arts should not be ignored. It is not right that they should compete with technology. One should complement the other. Appreciation was therefore stressed in the art culture. 24 Mark Hanson Al Larson 1 Nancy Pechman
