This enabled counselors to spend less time with routine activities. A guidance center was set up in the basement. Basically, it handled student testing, scholarships, registration, sched- ule changes and all career and voca- tional information. With the help of Mr. Milner and his T.V. productions class, the use of closed circuit television provided the counselors with an excellent aid in executing their program. Mr. Quenelle ordered a quantity of essential production equip- ment for this purpose. Counselors who had taught courses other years discontinued their teaching and concentrated totally on counseling. In this way they were able to give better assistance to students. Along with the large number of stu- dents came many busy hours, but the counselors managed to be available whenever necessary.

English Class s Explored Team Teaching Experimenting with team teaching in order to use room space efficiently, Mr. Milton Agte, Mrs. Elinor Warren and Dr. Robert White instructed several combined senior English classes. The purpose of team teaching was to encourage stu- dents to feel that they were on the same level of understanding as their teachers. ln this way, obiective discussions were held, and an appreciation of world literature was gained. A study of anthology occupied much of the freshman courses in English. Structures of language, which would prepare them for future years, were heavily emphasized. Sophomores discovered a fuller interpretation of the novel and further examined short stories. Drama was explored through a study of several plays. Research work in the library brought rewarding experiences for juniors. They concentrated on the aspects of American liter- ature. Juniors also studied through team teaching in an effort to associate American literature with American history. Mr. Phil Roy and Mr. Earl Caldwell taught these classes. High ability courses on all four levels were available to stu- dents with above-average grades who wished to supplement their knowledge of the subject.
