E. THEODORE STIER, Chairman Guidance Coordinator Shucks. KX- G IDA CE The Guidance Department provides for stu- dents, parents and the borough. These services are of a vocational, educational, emotional and spiritual nature. Students are helped in adjust- ing to the school and utilizing their abilities in the best possible manner. Attempts are made to locate those with particular abilities so that they can be encouraged to pursue their particular strengths. One of the department's primary jobs is to assist in college and vocational place- ment. In the past year the Board of Education has reorganized the department so that further ser- vices can be provided in the future. This ex- pansion will allow more students to discuss their problems without interruption as they arise. Needed physical space will be provided by the new addition. This will insure privacy and efficiency. CECIL B. ENGLEHAR DT Guidance D' you see? Y RICHARD EVANS Guidance, Driver Education Whois step number one?

Para manana, Vamos A Escribirf' 1' If 'f Q, ya. , ' uv 4 ' 4' s ,,,,f, JOHN R. GROMELSKI Latin 1,2,3,4 BETTY KOENIC, Chairman Spanish 1,2 In this modern world of rapid air travel, U. N. membership, international commerce, and extensive tourist trade, America needs citizens with a knowledge of at least one language other than our own. Language study should include study not only of linguistic skills but also of the way in which the people live. This also aplies to the ancient languages, such as Latin, since western civilization had its origin in the ancient world. Thus modern language study will enable Americans to meet more effi- ciently our world responsibilities, and it will also broaden our general education so that we may appreciate other people's con- tributions to culture in the fields of literature, art, music, history, and science.
