Guaranteed Guidance Program aids Each student on our PV campus has a counselor and meets with him at least once a year. Students and Counselors may discuss such con- cerns as personal problems, par- ents, teachers, scheduling, admis- sions testing and gain information on careers for the future. The counselors were also in- volved in the Guaranteed Guid- ance program which is in its sec- ond year at PV. ln the program the counselor arranges a conference with the freshman students and Frosh parents to discuss graduation re- quirements and adjustment to high school. According to Mr. Jerry Lemon, department chairman, his advice to oncoming freshman is don't get discouraged. Another program administered by the counseling office is the state mandated achievement test. This year the Stanford Achieve- ment test will replace the Califor- nia Achievement test. All students here will be required to take the Stanford Achievement test. ,gas :sw sg., f- f Dr. Hamm consults Senior Greg Stephenson about his last f Mr. Ron Harten Mrs. Annette Ketterson Mr. Steve Lewis Secretary ' as xi , xr - Iri ' .P ..,, . 5 ,, ,Q '1 ' Mr. Jerry Lemon Department Chairman Mrs. Betty DiGesu check of the year.

Students Display Talents. Although some people feel only those with a refined talent may take art, this isn't so. Art is more than that. lt's a way to express feelings through one- self. ln class, students learn to draw detail pencil drawings, draw from pictures, silkscreen, paint and learn ceramics. There are all types of art classes such as Intro. to Fine Art, Painting and Ceramics. Miss Patty Shack, art teacher, says, Art gives students an alter- native, as a hobby or a career. 2' Q Q I I i . ,,gy Students display their artwork.
