GUIDANCE Guiding the students of Searcy High School toward a satisfying occupa- tion and a rewarding life is the ob- jective of the Guidance office. With the aid of achievement tests, appro- priate literature, and personal inter- views, the counselor can help each student select a program which will best prepare him to further his ed- ucation in a carefully chosen field or to take his place in the world of business. Mrs. Mary Pitner Guidance Occupations Seniors spent many hours taking tests to determine what career would be best suited to their interests. Mrs. Pitner helps Jimmy Price reach a decision about which school he will attend after graduation in May.
