Guidance Grows Each and every member of Grove- ton’s student body has an opportunity to follow the signposts leading to the Gui¬ dance Department. This important branch of Administration guides students through their high school years by help¬ ing them to understand themselves, by discussing with them their individual problems, and aiding them in the choice of a curriculum. The occupational information of¬ fered by this department includes both ability tests and aptitude tests to help students decide upon the occupation to which they are best suited. Guidance plans for continuing educa¬ tion included a College Day on October 10, in which thirty-nine colleges and uni¬ versities were represented. In April, an Armed Service Day was planned for boys; also, a panel discussion of careers. For the benefit of those interested in at¬ tending college, information on scholar¬ ships was offered. A few of the scholar¬ ship tests given included the National Merit Scholarship Qualification Test, The Betty Crocker Test, the University of Richmond Test, and Strayers Business College Test. The Guidance Department also works hand in hand with outside communities to co-ordinate school, home, and com¬ munity life. Mrs. Hamman and Mr. Rooks work diligently to secure scholarships for students. GUIDANCE STAFF— Seated : Miss Owen, Sophomore Counselor; Mrs. Gentry, Director; Mrs. Keesee, Senior Counselor.
