Counselors Lend a Helping Hand Although the work of LPHS counselor! was often overlooked, they performed the important tasks of determining the academic needs of the students and scheduling them in the most beneficial classes. To a senior of I.aFortc High. Mr. Smith and Mrs. Winebrcnncr were a constant source of information because graduation requirements had to be met and college plans completed. Miss Knight and Miss Cosand assisted the junior class in planning their third year of high school. Early in the school year. PSAT tests, in addition to other qualifying tests, were given to those interested in preparing for college. The advice of the counselors made the procedure of college selection less complex. For those not planning to attend college, counselors answered questions pertaining to their career after graduation Upon entering LPHS, sophomores were inexperienced with high school life. Questions about the new Phase Elective Program were frequently asked; credit requirements also left the underclassmen with many future decisions. Consequently. Mr. Horst and Mrs. Embree’s work proved to be a foundation for high school life. All students had an opportunity to become better acquainted with their counselors by having the same advisor throughout their high school career.
