New position aids students To help counselors close the language and cultural gap, interviews were conducted for the first time in hopes of finding a Vietnamese speaking person to help counselors with South East Asian students. Interviews were based on the applicants know- ledge of public and private agencies, their ability to communicate and their ability to prepare clear and concise oral and written reports. According to Counselor Delmar Petzold, he has 80 students with the same last name of Nguyen. Mr. Petzold said that it was fun, exciting, and a challenge to remember which name went with which face. Once there were three students with the same first and last names waiting in the counseling office, according to Mr. Petzold. Their first name was spelled differently but it sounded the same. Ac- cording to Mr. Petzold, he called out their first name then went back into his office. Nobody fol- lowed him until he realized what had happened. According to Principal Floyd Williams, 21 percent of all Tokay students were South East Asian. Of that percentage, Vietnamese students were the majority. A new position, Career Center technician. was filled by Cheryl Phillips early in the year. This position allowed the Career Center to remain open from first through seventh periods to offer informa- tion and resources on any vocation or college. One of the main goals set by the counselors was to meet with every sophomore and their parents to plan for their future at Tokay and possibly future college. by Sheryl Tankersley 3.
