COUNSELORS HELP SOLVE STUDENT PROBLEMS This year Princess Anne's Guidance De- partment saw a new member with the addi- tion of the Freshman Class. She is Miss Kath- leen Davis who now joins Mrs. Freeman, Mrs. Hudgins, Miss Bracey, and Mr. Atkinson. These counselors work with students on a grade level basis in order to distribute their time more efficiently, Two counselors are as- signed to the Senior Class as this grade level particularly depends on their counselors for college and vocational guidance. These full time counselors are available at all times for conferences with students and parents. The guidance department is designed to help students with their academic, personal, and social problems which they encounter during their high school career. The depart- ment supervises testing programs such as the National Merit Scholarship Exams, it also organizes College and Career Day Programs. The guidance counselors are aided by the faculty advisors. Each homeroom teacher is available to help students in his room. ln addition, each teacher has at least one full period a day for subject-matter counseling. Such a complete guidance system enables students to pass through high school with a minimum of difficulties. Miss Betty Bracey, Junior Counselor, discusses college plans with a student.

' Mr. Frank W. Cox Superintendent of Schools From its establishment in I953, Princess Anne High School has maintained an outstanding ad- ministration. The principal, Mr. J. Warren Little- ton has served Princess Anne as its chief ad- ministrator for many years. He has seen Prin- cess Anne emerge from a small five grade junior and senior high school into a full-fledged high school, an outstanding Group A participant. This year the students of Princess Anne demonstrated their appreciation for his fine services by pre- senting him with an oil portrait. This portrait of the principal is displayed in the foyer of the auditorium. Mr. Edwin Charles has also rendered his in- valuable services to Princess Anne for many years. Both faculty and students have admired and re- spected his role as an executive administrator. The Princess Anne administrators are as ver- satile as they are efficient. One good example is the assistant principal, Pete Sachon. During the tall season he is better known by his alias, Coach Sachon, as he serves as Princess Anne's head football coach. ln the spring he assumes another title, that of Golf Coach. Mr. Sachon has helped Princess Anne acquire many athletic awards and honors as well as contribute many services as an assistant principal. ADMINISTRATION GUIDES FACULTY AND STUDENTS Mr. J.
