Valuable Services Are Performed By Custodians Everyday the action at Warwick started long be- fore the students arrived at school. The cafeteria staff, headed by Mrs. Barnard, was already busily preparing food for the students and faculty, who would stampede the cafeteria at the first sound of the lunch bell. The staff not only prepared meals but also, on occasions, added a sparkle to lunchtime with miniature cupcakes with various colors of frost- ing and small trinkets coinciding with the time of year. Whenever there was a problem with a jammed locker or a broken pencil sharpener, up went the cry for a custodian. Every day the patient, able- bodied janitorial staff received complaints from teachers suffering from broken windows to burned- out lights! Also under the title of janitorial staff came the trusty cleaners who were responsible for cleaning the rooms and corridors after each school day. It seemed that the custodian and janitorial staffs’ work was never done; but with their aid Warwick’s year was a good one.

The year 66-67 brought much action to Warwick ' s expert Guidance Department. The problems of chang- ing schedules, PSAT’s, and College Boards were again tackled by the staff with the efficiency so well known to Warwick students. Each class was given an individual counselor to assist it during the academic year. Under the skillful guidance of Mrs. Palmer, many seniors were helped with the frustrating problems of which college to at- tend or which career to pursue. Mrs. Muire compe- tently supervised juniors with College Boards. Sopho- mores were counseled by Mrs. Quesenberry; and Mrs. Parker and Miss Macjunkin aided ninth grad- ers. Confused eighth graders learned that their best friend was their guidance counselor, Mrs. Baker. Through the experienced guidance staff, each stu- dent was considered individually and could he given advice on almost any phase of school or home life. Because of their personal interests in each student, the Guidance Department can he attributed with much of Warwick’s success. above: Mrs. Burton checks with Mrs. Palmer, senior class counselor, about college transcripts. left: Mrs. Muire studies a schedule change for one of her 1700 students. below: Mrs. Parker, counselor for the ninth grade, advises a student. 18
