Below: Mr. Parimaz Marsubian and Miss June Peterson jointly discuss and try to solve problems with a student in the counselors office. When a student becomes weighed down with problems, he often finds his way to the Counseling Office. Helping the students to. solve their problems is an every day occurrence in the life of a counselor. Upon entering Grant, each student is given a counselor who follows him through his High School years. At this time, the counselor finds out as much as he can about each student, his plan for the future as well as the present. Through this relationship many friendships are developed and during the Senior year much assistance is given to plans for college or vocational plans. In addition to class counselors, there is a vocational counselor to assist students in finding jobs. Credit can be obtained for part time work and a program of combined education at school as well as on the job training is available.
