High School Students Want Adult Treatment,

I'PI Education Specialist
High school students need en
couragement to develop fully in
academic, emotional and social
growth.
Teen agers appear to have
some truly difficult problems of
adjustment. Even though teen
agers think they are adults
and figlM to be treated as such,
tliey still are in need of guid
ance. A parent's method of
working with children must
change during the teen years.
Academically, high school stu
dents have major decisions to
make. For some, high school
will lie tlie end of their formal
education. Tliey should lie sure
to anpiite the kinds of skills
which will help them in their
vocation. For ihose who intend
to go on to college, it is neces
sary lli.it they take the courses
and achieve tlie grades required
,for admission. In either case,
it is advisable to lake courses
