Abstract

The problem set forth in this study was to investigate the attitudes of the students, their parents, faculty and administration towards various functions of the guidance department at Rossville High School in Rossville, Indiana.A survey of 25 questions was constructed and distributed to the students, their parents, faculty and administration in grades 7 through 12 at the school Eighty-four percent of these surveys were returned.On 16 of the 25 questions the groups agreed the counselor should be doing that particular task mentioned. On the other 9 questions the group had an overall "no opinion" response. Eight of the items were indicated as "needing extra attention" at Rossville.The survey was administered to a small rural school population and the results should be reviewed with this in mind.
