The Guidance Department has added to its staff, this year, two counselors, Janna Caughan and John Harry, to provide for more in-depth counseling opportunities. For the first time, the Guidance Department issued class rank to the junior class based on Grade 10 achievement. Another ''first at Long Branch High was the inauguration of a Varsity Scholar Program. Awards were presented to juniors based on their Grade 10 attainment of a 4.0 or above accumulated average and to seniors who had achieved such an average during Grade 11. Of last year's graduating seniors, nearly three-fourths have attended two and four year colleges or other institutions of advanced education. The Guidance Department was instrumental in securing scholarship monies in excess of $360,000 to aid in the financing of the seniors post-high school educations.
