CONGRATULATIONS TO MISS COCHRAN! O us, The Seniors, I946 is an all-imporTanT year. iT is none The less imporTanT To FreeporT High School, Tor This year marlcs a milesTone in The eTTicienT devoTed service oT FreeporT's rnosT gracious lady, Miss RuTh E. Cochran. TwenTy-Tive years ago, The liTTle red school- house welcomed a Teacher Trom The mission Tields oT lndia. MaTh was her subiecT, and Tor seven periods a day she TaughT iT paTienTly, in- spiraTionally - elemenTary alegbra, plane geom- eTry, inTermediaTe alegbra, TrigonomeTry, solid geomeTry, and advanced algebra. As The sTudenT body increased Trom Tour hun- dred To Tive hundred and upwards, a new school was builT. WiTh The new school came new Teach- ers, and Miss Cochran was relieved oT some oT her classes so ThaT she mighT assume The respon- sibiliTies oT a new posiTion, Vice-Principal and Dean oT Girls. We lcnow her as a Trig Teacher whose maThe- maTical deTTness is a consTanT source oT admira- Tion, as a Dean oT Girls who is always ready To help wiTh lcindly inTelligenT advice, and as a Vice-Principal who is lceenly inTeresTed in us, our problems, and our progress. We shall remember her Twinlcling eyes, her ready smile, and her warm voice reading The ChrisTmas STory Trom The Bible aT each ChrisT- mas Assembly. We shall remember her Tor her compassion, her sTeadTasTness oT purpose, and her devoTion To duTy. Her example will serve as a guide Tor us and, we sincerely hope To many many TuTure gradu- aTing classes. Guidance DeparTmenT HE Junior-Senior Guidance DeparTmenT plays an imporTanT parT in The liTe oT every sTudenT in The school, since in iTs TuncTions oT boTh voca- Tional and personal guidance iT comes inTo con- TacT wiTh everyone. Few realize The Tremendous job oT planning period Tor period, hundreds oT schedules each semesTer. Besides This service To The school, Mr. Tremper advises The Seniors on colleges suiTed To each one's chosen Tield and Tries To obTain as many scholarships as possible Tor ambiTious graduaTes. Once a monTh Mr. Tremper holds guidance classes Tor Seniors where The Kuder PreTerence TesT is given To discover The ouTsTand- ing inTeresTs oT each parTicipanT. For Those who do noT inTend To go To college, Mr. Tremper helps To Tind well-suiTed iobs. Miss Virginia Rapp plans The schedules Tor The Junior High, where sevenTh and eighTh graders carry as many as eighT subiecTs. Her duTies also include The all-imporTanT Task oT aTTendance checking, which plays such a viTal parT in any scholasTic-conscious school. ln order To help The newly-arrived sevenTh graders, Miss Rapp holds orienTaTion classes To accusTom The boys and girls To high school liTe.
