Mount Si got a new counselor this year: Mr. Thomas Tilton. Herr Tilton also taught German, just as the other counselors, Mrs. Nancy Skerritt and Mrs. Marilyn Hargraves, taught English. These three were there to help students with any school related or per- sonal problems they couldn't han- dle alone. They were aided in this endeavor by the cheerful and effi- cient Sandy Foerste. The Counseling Center was also a resource center for the future. Mrs. Skerritt especially loved help- ing students plan for college, vocational school and other future goals. Whatever the problem or goal, the Counseling Center was almost always open to help students! Counseling Center 149

ili lii. 148 Library The library was the victim of two new policies! Book checks Cstarted in mid-year of 19813 cut in half the number of lost books. lt appears that the checks at the door are discouraging the casual theft, but some books are still be- ing taken, explained Mr. Rene. Another new policy was the elimination of fines for over-due materials. The original idea behind the fines were to encourage bor- rowers to return their materials. Instead of the fines, the library has not allowed students to check anything out if they had overdue library materials. T tit 1.

ili- u 150 English M . English Department objectives were limited by budget cutbacks. Necessary classroom purchases such as textbooks were delayed because of lack of funds. Class sections were decreased and one English teacher, Mrs. Hargraves, was switched mainly to the Counseling Center. Results have been larger classes and fewer electives. Special Services, formerly Special Education, was affected by these cuts. Consisting of three sections: Math, Language Arts, and Vocational Education, this program gave those with learning disabilities whatever individual help as was needed. Mainstreaming, the practice of putting Special Services students into graduation requirement classes, improved student suc- cess rate. 1. Stop picking your nose, Marc Combs! 2.
