A99 3 Qc-'W QA his., J sf - ' I 4, 5 5 ,sr O nspiration Inspirotion comes from mony sources ll t's been a life-long dream, said Mrs. Susanna Smith. Many PV teachers shared her feelings toward teaching, a job that required an abundance of patience with a few measures of inspiration thrown in. That inspiration came from many sources. I had a teacher in high school who encouraged me a lot, said Irving Seager, I also like to work with young people. I guess I was inspired to become a teacher by my grandmother who was also a teacher, said Mrs. Dorothy Smith. The people or things which en- couraged PV teachers to teach ranged from relatives and former teachers to personal ambitions and dreams. For as long as I can remember that's what l've wanted to be, said Miss Angela Sears, At first I wanted to teach Home Ec, but when I got out of college, I took a job as an elementary school teacher and found I liked the younger kids. Some, like Moses Smith were inspired by their love of kids or even their hobbies, I like working with kids, said Smith, I like to work witli my hands. Other kept their hobbies as sideline. Gary rolf spent his free tim , playing tennis or riding his bike while Miss Sears enjoyed photo! graphy, reading and walking. Mrs Susanna Smith also enjoyed readini along with skating and horsebac riding. 1 Mrs. Dorothy Smith spent her tim away from school sewing and doin crewel work and needlepoint. X Whatever the source of inspiratior in the lives of PV teachers, most were glad they chose their very importan jobs, as their choices gave them tha opportunity to inspire and make a impression on the adults and perhap: teachers of tomorrow. 174!For friends

Teachers went home To vorious things offer ci hord-working, yet enioyoble doy l76fFor friends arkview teachers enjoyed teaching and various other things about their jobs. I like getting into the business community and working with em- ployees. I also like seeing students grow into efficient, productive em- ployees, said Ms. Gloria Venable, Typing I and II, COE coordinator. Mrs. Helen Turner feels that a teacher is responsible for a students attitude, but a wise teacher knows her attitude rubs off. Besides the busy business world, teachers were always ready to go home. After the school hours I like sewing and cooking. If I couldn't teach Home Economics, I would go into something where I could counsel young people, said Mrs. Ella Walker, Home Economics, Human Development. It seemed that teachers no matter what they taught, enjoyed their jobs. Whether teaching new things or sponsoring clubs, teachers felt good about what they were doing.
