A new job entry program was instituted by the guidance department. Seniors who had ten credits, and met all academic requirements, could get a full time job and earn the remaining credits toward graduation on the job. The job had to lead to a certain career, and be one with a prospect for advancement. Mrs. Lois B. Steele was added to the guidance staff as an occupational specialist. Her role was to help students make realistic occupational choices, encourage a positive attitude toward work, and inform students of job opportunities and requirements. She identified potential jobs for persons who had completed a iob preparatory program. She also provided the same services to those who had dropped out of school. Providing educational, vocational, and personal coun- seling were some of the guidance counselors' responsibil- ities. The staff also checked on students' credits to see what they needed to graduate. Statewide twelfth grade placement tests, PSAT! NMSQT and the DAT, which helped set up the control group for the percentile system of the SAT, were given under the supervision of the guidance department. Counselors also sponsored the orientation of new students at Rickards. The counseling staff increased to four this year with the addition of Mr. Samuel Sims.
