GUIDANCE i James Louis Nitsos B.S. Purdue M.S. University of Southern California To the passerby, the door marked 0.4 may seem mysterious, but this is the information office. The Guidance Office, where Mr. Nitsos awaits to help you to help yourself. How much knowledge you acquire in high school and how you intend to use this acquired knowledge are problems that involve some pretty important decisions. The Guidance Office can supply the pertinent information necessary to make those decisions intelligent ones. Of course, the decision is made by you, not by Mr. Nitsos. He will help the student to face his problem realistically and to arrive at an intelligent solution. The Guidance department also keeps a comprehensive portfolio on each student. His past achievements are shown on his permanent record card, and his capabilities for future accomplishments are reflected in his I.Q. tests, aptitude tests,etc. The student s other interests are shown by his extracurricular activities, hobbies, preference tests and interviews in the Guidance Office. Our file in the Guidance Office is information on job requirements, available openings in various fields, and rewards from different occupations. The Guidance department, room 0.4, is always open to students in need of planning for the future. 12

With toe final pages of the Rolling Log on the way to the press, the staff was able to give a sign of relief. They had spent long hours of careful planning in order to develop the best annual ever published by Rolling Prairie seniors. There had to be pictures taken, stories written, pages set up, and typing, but Mr. West managed to guide us to complete a successful edition. t YEARBOOK STAFF NEWSPAPER STAFF Headlines and deadlines became popular words to students who helped publish the school newspaper. This was the first year for a newspaper staff to have the opportunity of meeting daily and receiving credit for their work. Students could always be seen during second period in the halls, gathering facts for a story. Thus, the Bulldog Barks was published bi-weekly featuring many new columns. 11
