Is Chief Goal For Office, Guidance Personnel 41 7 V All school activities dealing with Warren stu- dents were directly or indirectly channeled through the main office. Days and times of club meetings were also decided here. Time allotments for homeroom, lunch peri- ods, and regular classes were decided upon by the administrative staff, and bells were planned and directed by the office. All announcements were placed in their final form here, and de- livered over the Public Address System, as were morning devotions. Also programmed through the main office were times and directions for fire drills. Serving for the first time as principal of WC was Mr. Obert Piety. His year saw many athletic victories and revisions in school policy. All students will remember him as a fine man, while seniors will recall his firm, encouraging handshake at graduation. More closely linked to the student body than the main office, guidance personnel as- sisted the students in preparing for the future. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors were able to plan a class schedule geared to their own in- dividual needs. As usual, many counselors were busy helping students, particularly seniors, in preparing for future life either in college or in an immediate vocational position. Helping 1971 graduates decide on a college and then work- ing to meet the entrance requirements was a time consuming but rewarding task. Some counselors even participated in delivering the SAT and Achievement Tests to interested students. Personal records were also kept on file in the guidance office. These records are used to recommend students for jobs, and serve as information on academic accomplishments. 23
