His iob in- cludes not only being a friend-in-need, but also acting as a helpful guide as the students select their entire high school program. The counselor stays with his counselees throughout all four years and has each of them for one period each day, at which time he teaches them social science. The freshmen receive one semester of adoles- cent adiustment and one semester of review of ancient history. In the sophomore year the students get driv- er's training for nine weeks and a continuation of world history. Some of the more fortunate pupils actually get behind-the-wheel driving for twelve hours. These students, upon completion of drivers' training, receive a discount on their insurance rates and can obtain their licenses six months earlier than teen-agers without this course. The junior year is devoted to American his- tory. All students must pass both semesters of this section before they can graduate. I , .fl 4:1 i . f .f JU!

The Boys' Physical Education program offers a wide variety of sports and skills. Sports offered are football, volleyball, wrestling, softball, basket- ball, tennis, and handball. Some of the skills which are stressed are tumbling and social dancing. A primary purpose of physical education is to help the boys learn how to control their growing bodies, hence, many sports are based on co-or- dination and timing. Physical education classes also serve as training grounds for the development of social skills. The boys are graded on not only their adequacy to participate in sports but also their ability to get along with others. The aforementioned skill, social dancing, is taught to all students for three weeks in an effort to make the task of socializing easier. During this time they learn such standards as the fox trot, waltz, and iitterbug plus a few extras -the rumba, tango, and samba.
