Burton, our former physical education instructor. We understand that you are needed there, But you are also in our memories here. We wish you luck wherever you may be. As you help to mould other young minds and careers. With sincere devotions THE SENIOR CLASS 1962 PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE GREETINGS TO THE CLASS OF 1962 My young friends of the Class of 1962; I am, as usual, happy to congratulate you upon your ac¬ complishments made while a member of the Northampton County High School Family. You have been worthy members, and we look forward to you carrying this same characteristic with you as you leave these halls. Today, you are entering the most perilous period in American history. At stake, are the funda¬ mental freedoms of all peoples, but we feel that if other young Americans have the consideration, understanding, generosity, and group unity that you have; tomorrow’s world will be one of peace and brotherly love for all man kind. Just as you have been interested in your school; so should you be interested in your neighbors of the world--who are being brought nearer to you each day. If civilization is to continue, a new world government must be built by you upon ideals that all peoples must be free to share fully and equally in this government. Let me again urge you to make with care your future plans because your world will be seeking men and women who, as a result of careful planning, can produce with excellency. Now, as you leave us; may God grant you wisdom, knowledge, and the determination that will enable you to take your rightful places along with other American citizens who are striving to make this Land, one worthy of such men and women that we trust you will be. With best wishes, , Principal 2 I 9 T R A T I 0 N ADMINISTRATION MR. W. H. SMITH PRINCIPAL MRS. I. J. WILLIAMS HOME ECONOMICS Johnson C.

Guidance is not something we do today and forget tomorrow. Guidance, like any other phase of the school program, must be On Going. However, at particular periods in the educational life of the child, guidance needs are accentuated. For example, most pupils in any school will need help in adjusting to a new school environment, in planning a high school program, or in selecting a college. As pupils ap¬ proach these critical steps in the educational ladder, it is appropriate that group guidance activities be conducted. The Guidance Committee is attempting this type of group guidance as well as individual guidance through the following activities: Follow up studies; homeroom guidance; personal interview; student progress charts; and career day. Members of the Committee are; STANDING: Miss G. L. Brown, Counselor; Mr. W. H. Smith, Princi¬ pal; Miss F. J. Stephenson, Mr. F. W. Brickhouse. SEATED; Mrs. L. U. Kornegay, Mrs. I. J. Williams, and Mrs. A. W. Smith. 9 STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is proud and happy to lead the Student Body through another school year.
