Shorthand, Typing The Guidance Department Instructs And Counsels In order to fill the present needs of students at Franklin County High School, the guidance counselors advised each person of the curriculum most helpful to his future plans. In the spring each student had an individual session with his counselor in order to organize his schedule for the coming year. As an increasing number of FCHS graduates continued their education at college, the guidance department endeavored to match each student with the college or university at which he would be happiest and would reach his full potential. The office was well supplied with catalogues and information on all state colleges and many schools in other areas. Students who finished their formal education at high school graduation found that the guidance department had help for them, also. There they had access to many books and pamphlets which explained the advantages of the variety of opportunities open to high school gradu- ates. MR. JAMES BROCE B.S., M.Ed.

And Keeps The School Running Smoothly MISS MARGIE HALL Secretary ... A.A. Ferrum College Mr. Wesley Naff, the assistant principal, contri- buted much to Franklin County High in many ways. In enforcing discipline, his friendliness and fairness in settling problems throughout his years at Frank- lin County have brought forth respect and admira- tion from the students. He also guided students through his sponsorship of the influential Student Cooperative Association. Besides these time-con- suming duties, he sold tickets to sports events and approved excuses for student absences. Mr. Naff received his B.S. from VPI and his M.Ed. from Radford College. Without the help of secretaries, the administra- tors would have had an overwhelmingly difficult job in the operation of the school. Providing the necessary assistance, Miss Hall and Mrs. Adkins typed, arranged files, and did many, many jobs to keep the school functioning efficiently. As well- managed finances are the root of a successful school, Mrs. Brown’s work as bookkeeper played an important part in the achievements of Franklin County High School. MRS.

The cafeteria, together with the efficient staff of experienced dieticians, cooks, and student helpers, endeavored to provide each student with tasty, well-balanced meals each day during the school session. The custodial staff performed effectively the tasks which improved the appearance of the campus of FCHS. The custodial staff kept the shrubbery and lawn in good order and maintained cleanliness and warmth throughout the building. In addition to their other duties, the staff worked with the cafeterial staff to keep the students supplied with sterile trays, plates, and flatware.
