Guidance for Future Well-Provided The most important decision in a student's life could very well be made in room 214, the guidance office. There decisions centering around plans for future years are made through the cooperative efforts of student and instructor alike. Personal abilities, possible future schooling, and job opportunities are all important factors in determining postgraduation activities. Information on a wide variety of occupations and bulletins for practically every existing college can be easily found or can be sent for. Also benefiting from this department are students wishing help in selecting their high school courses.

Three different foreign languages are offered in senior high's curriculum. Latin, Spanish, and French, all of which are offered as two-year courses, provide interesting and enlightening study. Study in these foreign languages begins with simple introductory words and phrases such as Oui, Monsieur. As study continues, it becomes increasingly complicated until a second year student of any of these languages can carry on a full-fledged conversation. Monsieur Peister explains the punctuation of francais on the black board.
