Time out Hobbies provide reloxotion eaching at Parkview took time and effort but the faculty found time to relax and spend time with family and friends. Steps toward relaxation included movies, reading, gardening and doing things for them- selves such as traveling and painting. I would like to see more of the world because of my curiosity about how other people live, govern them- selves and worship, said Mrs. Wan- da Wimberly, history. Painting china intrigued Mrs. Sara Wyerick who attended classes week- ly. She also enjoyed playing tennis, running and working with flowers. Sorority activities kept Mrs. Wyer- ick and Mrs. Anne Cooper busy in their spare time. Mrs. Wyerick partic- ipated in Delta Kappa Gamma activit- ies and the Pi Beta Phi Alumnae Club. Mrs. Cooper attended Chi Omega Alumnae Club meetings. When asked what she would do besides teaching Mrs. Cooper replied that she would be an accountant because she would probably make. fewer mistakes in dealing with figures, than she did in meeting the needs of students whose moods, interests and' activities are constantly changing. t These teachers enjoyed teaching and the feeling that students needed to discover the fact that learning is an experience that could be enjoyed. Any student who wants to can learn and learn as much as they want to, said Mrs. Joyce Williams. Teaching became more than a job. for these teachers, it was a way of life and they were doing something they' enjoyed. ' 178!For friends l

DR. ARTHUR W. GILLUM, School Board Secretary, Veterinarian. C.0. MAGEE, Jr.,School Board Vice Presl- dent, Mlnlster. 'N uxaA. Beyond the call Board, administration continue good relations tor public schools ittle Rock schools owes the school board and central administration gratitude for their time, interests, and support, above and beyond the call of duty. I want to make our schools better. I am 'concerned about public schools and our country, said C.O. Magee Jr., school board vice president, I'm also excited in a good public school system as Little Rock. I want to continue a good relationship with the young people. One of the newest programs adopt- ed by the board this year was a program for the talented and gifted. This vocational educational pro- gram has been reworked for students who are academically and artictically gifted. .It's designed to stimulate students special qualities. Raising a student's grade point was the main goal set by the school board. Students learned more than they had in the past and the SRA scores were above average. The reading program, which began last year, was one of the most successful programs adopted. Besid- es the reading program, the business program expanded the use of com- puters in their department. One major thing which is being done to improve schools this year is that the counseling staff is looking at students to help them with their future schooling immediately after high school, saidl Dr. Carolyn C. Weddle, Assistant Superintendent for Program Implementation.
