Workers give time, assistance to tudents Whether it was giving advice toward a specific conflict or encouraging students to lfeel more open, the Northwest support ser- vices team was recognized for the giving of their time and patience to students. Besides patrolling the parking lots and making .sure students were not loitering in the hallways the two security specialists spent many hours assisting the administra- tion at athletic events, helping students and staff with car problems and getting to know the students on an individual basis. Bud Schreck and Esther Franklin attended all athletic contests and special school activities to assist those needing help and to supervise' student conduct. Caring for the health needs of the students, the school nurse was interested in the whole person. Throughout the year the nurse was responsible for conducting eye examinations and hearing tests, following-up with innoculation records and providing routine medical assistance. Ap- proximately 150 students went to the nurse's office every week for various reasons. Rosalie Sanderson performed comprehen- sive evaluations and counseling and inform- ed teachers about problems like drug abuse Joyce Simmons, the school psychologist visited with students who were referred by another staff member. The principle task for the psychologist was to help students work towards their problems through one- on-one counseling and testing. She assisted with tht re-evaluation process for students in the various Special Education classes. The social worker helped in problem solv- ing with both students and their parents. As a member of the evaluation team, Almera Caywood helped to screen students for ap- propriate education placement and made referrals to appropriate agencies when need- ed. Her job required working with atten- dance neglect and abuse and working close- ly with other social agencies. One of the main ideas of the support ser- vices staff was that they get out of their jobs what they put in. The support service staff remained as an authority, but also as a friend to students. -Tim Ross Support Services ' 63
