Guidance Department V.I.P. Enlightens Seniors With Class ’65 News 'V1.P., Very Important Paper, was a new high- light of the Guidance Department. This news- paper was designed to keep seniors informed of up- coming events which vitally concerned their futures. Monthly editions, containing dates of important tests, information about scholarships and gradua- tion, and college and career clues, were issued to all seniors. Guiding students through the year and pre- paring them for each new challenge was the func- tion of the Wythe Guidance Department. Aiming to help students transform tentative ideas into definite goals and youthful plans into future reali- zations, the department sponsored such functions as College Night, Medics' Day, Armed Service Day, interviews for students with college and busi- ness representatives, and various testing programs. The willingness of the students to seek help and their firm confidence in the department made the work effective and rewarding.
