Natural Helpers Starrett gets the crowded gym to scream louder. '. '1., E.1'3 lv Staff And Sfudenfs Alice Are Involved. here is a unique pro- gram here at Red- mond High called Natural Helpers. Students and staff are chosen to be part of this pro- gram. It is not a class or a club, but a group of people who work indi- vidually with people who have problems. Students' problems are not necessarily always crises, Any- thing they would like to talk about can be discussed with their peers. Natural Helpers are chosen by their peers. The top ten seniors, juniors, and sophomores are se- lected. The students that were in Natural Helpers in junior high are asked if they join and continue their work. All of the students and staff go on a retreat to train in listening NATURAL HELPERS and referral skills. The total num- ber of students at Redmond in Natural Helpers is 106 and there are 18 trained staff members in- cluding two administrators. Mrs. Kuykendall is the advisor The kldS love Carl g peers -Marge Kuykendall and is also a trained Natural Help- er. She has them meet each month to report on their progress.
