toumloi uuL CmuJmJw, MR. MICHAEL DAVIES: Counselor Goals: The end to which a design tends; aim; purpose. Mr. Webster states in one of his many books that in order to reach a goal we must have at least three things: purpose, aim, tend. Purpose —This is something for us to decide. We must ask ourselves, what am I going to be? Whatever it may be needs purpose, and our counselors and coordinators have helped us to decide what our goal in life may be. When we have purpose we have something to aim for, something that will make us a success! The third, tend, that's a strange word isn't it? But it means to reach. The goals we reach are seldom reached alone. We all owe a lot of thanks to those who have helped us. The requirement! for College ore — explain! Mr. Dovie! to Beverly Fairbanks. MRS.

We're all in our places ... Twj School Stufjjj Keeping track of some 1400 students from 8:20 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. can be quite a job. Ask anyone down in the office about how busy they are. Better yet, don't disturb them again — just glance at their desks and the mountains of paper work will scare you. MRS. NOREEN STIEHM: Administration Aide. OFFICE STAFF: Mrs. Jacquclin Hunter. Mrs. Millie lukonen. Miss Mai Berg, Mrs. Nyla McCue, Mrs. Alice McLaughlin, Mrs. Betty Webster, Mrs. Noreen Stiehm. Mrs. Bea Conley. A full-time staff is required to keep the school running efficiently and these women do a marvelous job. All of the brass need secretaries and the secretaries need assistants and often times students are asked to help in some of the routine work. Walking into the office is cheerful because everyone always greets you with a smile. Our girls deserve an extra pat on the back! 10
