Sophomore Lisa Cardwell gave
the opinion shared by most of the
students, "During my teacher's
advisement program, I could talk to
my friends or do homework I didn't
finish . It gave me a break in the
routine that I wouldn't have other-
wise gotten."
Gene Moneke, counselor,
talked about the future of advi-
sement. From this year on, students
will have the same advisor all four
years of high school. This will give
them a chance to become close to
one teacher rather than four differ-
ent ones. This also will give teachers
"an involvement in what happens to
students after high school, which
should help the students when the
teacher applies this to their classes."
The advisement program holds
great opportunities in the years to
come. Some of the results of
advisement have already been
seen by the fact that the counselors
have more time to council students
rather than do paperwork.
Because of this, advisement is
probably here to stay for awhile.
