Mrs. Short Retires At a special assembly on November 24, 1976, Mrs. Virginia Short was honored by the student body, faculty, and administration. Ill health forced her retirement prematurely, although she has a long record of service and achievement behind her. Mrs. Short began teaching at age seventeen in the Gaston community. Next she taught at Liberty, Alamo, and Sims before coming to Mount Ida junior high in 1951 and later to senior high school. At various times in her tenure at Mount lda, she taught senior high English, junior high English, social studies, and served as librarian. She taught thirty-six years, twenty-nine of which were in the Mount Ida schools. Whatever courses she taught, Mrs. Short exercised her unique talent of relating individually to each student and drawing the best out of each one, both academically and behaviorally. We never knew of Mrs. Short's having a serious discipline problem. She was dedicated also to su p- porting students in their extracurricular activities, serving as junior and senior sponsor and Library sponsor many times during her career. Mrs. Short's retirement leaves a vacancy in the affec- tions of us all at Mount Ida High School. We pray for im- provement in her health that she may have a happy retire- ment and visit us often.
