GUIDANCE AND SPECIAL EDUCATION Mrs. Pat Campbell Girl's Counselor Mr. V. O. Harp Director of Guidance Todayis society demands that you, the students, make realistic decisions about life goals early in your school careers. There is no one time when you make THE decision. Instead, each year you make a number of small decisions which will either help or hinder you inyour efforts to achieve success. Unless you have some idea of what you would like to do with your life, it is hard to know what courses to study or how far to go in your schooling. The Guidance Department, your counse- lors, and the teachers are available to help you answer these questions.
