The most unforgettable event in my education career was when I was named Teacher of the Week by the Sacramento Valley Farm journal for promoting their theme for 1978-79. Ag- riculture Means Food.

And at the top, we must confront the challenge waiting for us there. How I used to love the creaky, wooden steps that led down to the playground at my elementary school. But I glanced in awe up the bannistered staircase which separated the second floor and the junior high from the lower grades. The steps to my high school were low and easy, shallow, simple. And at the university, there were so many dif- ferent kinds: high and low, old and new, easy and impossible. Stairs have always been a familiar pattern in my dreams as well: stairways in castles. towers and dung- eons that lead to adventure, achieve- ment, despair. All stairs lead somewhere. And si- lently, they shout their challenge: Climb up! So you dare? . Feliz Guthrie Spanish fI!Advancedj, Creative Writ- ing, and Literature II. 5. A dream. At first we know it best as an apparition, a formless thing that emerges gradually, a slow birth from our dark minds. This offspring la pure thingj has a shape, dimension, color.

I entered teacher training college at the age of forty-plus to find that my colleagues were all around twenty years of age. This, however, proved to be an inter- esting four years. Whereas I had wide experience of industry and outside of school, my younger colleagues were all recent graduates from high school. They, therefore, were up to date with the academic subject matter, and this oldfnew situation became a very good working relationship.

. .gf Student Apath Fought Student Council tried to bring many innovative ideas to Amador. We worked hard, fighting red tape and student apathy. We successfully ex- tended the lunch period, reopened the snack bar, sponsored two dances and other activities which benefitted the students. Student Council and I would like to thank Mr. Schutzg none of what we did could have been accomplished without the constant cooperation and help he gave us. Being Student Body President has been a very positive, learning experience. I'm glad I was given the opportunity to get to know more of the stu- dents and I would like to wish the students of Amador-especially the class of '79 success and happiness in whatever they do. I am very grateful to Student Council for its cooperation and making this an exciting year. Dana Adrian, Student Body President 1.
