Faculty Moves Students On To Bigger And Better Accomplishments. Teaching is a profession in which the teacher comes up against many students who have difficulties taking hold of the material and doing something with it. Most ofthe time this brick wall of resistance that the teacher comes up against is not a men- tal incapacity to learn, but it is merely a mental block that the student has set up which is very difficul to remove.

Q Class activities take a great deal more 4 effort and much more leadership because the scope of these activities is more broad and yet more detailed. Thot's where our dedicated faculty comes in, because they must shoulder much of the load, and they do. Consulting her notes for accuracy, Mrs. Stuckey serves as the sponsor and adult-at-large of the Honor Society.
