Guidance Prepares Students for Future Outreach and service to people was the theme of the Guidance Department here at Red Bank Regional this past year according to the Director of Student Personal Services, Mr. E. Martucci. This included evening hours, counseling service to the adult education program, and visits to the local sending districts. Another noticeable change was the addition of a career education center in the Guidance Office with equipment and help availa- ble during any student’s free period. The Guidance Counselor’s role has changed in the last several years to include services which place emphasis on the human being in a constantly changing technical society. Our Counseling staff met this challenge and provided the services that Red Bank Regional needed.

 May I have your attention please?” says Mr. Browning as he strives for order at Pep Rally. Architects of Education Mr. Moses’ eagle eye catches another offender. With the opening of the new school a year in the future, the administration moved forward with its plans to finalize preparation of staff and of stu- dents for entrance into the new school. Pilot was the name of the program that put half the incom- ing Freshman Class through the open space con- cept in order to test theories and attempt to recog- nize and prescribe remedies for the problems, the areas of confusion and the student reorientation that necessarily will develop upon entering the new school. An In-Service program was initiated on Wed- nesdays for faculty and administration. Half-day sessions for students allowed the faculty and the administration to meet with members of the Brookdale staff to discuss the open school. Coordi- nating the two programs and with 100% committ- ment, the administration under Superintendent Harold C. Schaible, Principal Willard Browning, along with Vice-Principal Thomas Conlon and Assistant to the Vice-Principal John Moses and Robert Strangia led the drive of the entire school towards better opportunity for all the students in the school district.

Pilot Experiments With ILP's A physical change on the third floor of the old building hailed the arrival of what was known as the Pilot Program this past year. Because the new school was built with the open space concept, Red Bank Regional was given a Title III grant to explore and try out individualized learning, team teaching, open space areas, and student responsi- bility. The program involved half the freshman class which was randomly selected. With a staff of six teachers and one guidance counselor, the program began with 75 students in the morning and 75 more in the afternoon. Each session was instructed in Math, Science, and the Humanities, which was both English and History combined. Under the direction of Mr. Robert McCall and Mr. Robert Noguera, the program had much suc- cess but some shortcomings. Both men believed however that the program served a meaningful purpose for the entry into our new school. Mr. Layton works along with students. 20
