Vice-Principal 1 , , i .l. CLYDE HUME One of the most important functions of a high school office is the assembling and preservation of a system of records All of your life, your record in Wyandotte High School will be referred to by government agencies, institutions of higher- learning and prospective employers. This includes attendance records which indicate punctuality and regularity, record of tests taken record of subiects taken and your class standing on the basis of grades and the record of extracurricular activities in which leadership and initiative have been displayed. We in the office are keeping your records for future use What we write on these records depends on you. Just a few weeks ago we received an inquiry from a New York City depart . ment store concerning the record of a member of our class of 1902. These are indeed permanent records of great importance to you and to those interested in you. J. Clyde Hume Director of Guidance It is the specific responsibility of the Guidance Department of Wyandotte High School to provide students with the special information which they need in making important decisions. This special information is often about vocations and employment. It may concern further education. It will frequently be concerned with the personality of the student. Aptitude, interest, and per- sonality tests given in the vocation classes to all in the sophomore year, and to others in the Guidance Office as the occasion war- rants, help students understand their own personalities, their abilities, and their aptitudes. Wyandotte's placement service is a part of the Guidance Department. Through it many students have been referred for part-time work during the school year and for vacation work. Graduates and former students are always welcome to the Guidance Office, and to the assistance of the department in secur- ing information on iobs with career possibilities.
