EXTRAS . ADD SPICE TO CURRICULUM Daily studies were sometimes interrupted when time was called for Career Day, consultations with college representatives, taking National Merit Tests and other scholastic exams for college entrance. These educational extras added a tang to school life, making us realize the importance of our preparatory training. We are fortunate to have two well-equipped libraries. Mrs. Mercedes Graham heads our junior library, in which are housed over 8,600 books. In addition, there are over 800 educational films and over 500 educational records constantly used by faculty and students. Our senior library, filled with many reference books, is cap¬ ably directed by Miss Frances Kraft. We make everyday use of stand-bys: Reader ' s Guide to Periodical Literature and the help¬ ful World Almanac. College Day brought representatives from colleges all over the country. Students made appointments with representatives of their choice to discuss room and board fees, tuition, and subjects offered at various colleges. Aptitude tests for college-bound juniors and seniors were offered throughout the year. National Merit Scholarship, P.S.A.T., S.C.A.T., and subject tests were given to hundreds of students. Students with a desire to make the most of their educational opportunities were provided with every opportunity. Boy, oh boy, there must be a million books here! thinks Dave Reno as he looks through our Senior Library card file.
