With dmiration Miss Phillis Burgess advises a student on a problem of schedul- ing. About the busiest people around the school are the counselors, who advise and help students with their pro- blems. Among the questions they are concerned with are scheduling, scholarship, personal and school pro- blems, college entrance, job placement, and even home and family difficulties. The librarians are on hand at all times to help us find books and information. They keep the library orderly and quiet, and make it a fine place to do our studying. The nurse-'s work is as varied as are our ailments. We go to her with a scratch or a high fever, and she fur- nishes a bandage, calls our parents or the doctor, as the problem demands. She advises us on questions of vision, hearing, physical difficulties, need for medical care, and all questions involving our well-being.

SCHIERLING Science Drivers' Education English Through the study of world history, American history, modern world problems, and social problems, the student gains a know- ledge and appreciation of his political, social, cultural, and economic heritage. He also gains a better understanding of the world in which he lives and his relationship to it. He is a better citizen because he knows more about his com- munity on a local, state, and national level. He has developed skills in obtaining information, judgment in determining its re- liability, and the ability to think for himself.
