Ill I-'I ll-lilll The Faculty By TXTARY Bukulass HIL Yalley junction High School has never before this year had the services of such efficient teachers. The school is progressing more than it ever has done, largely because the pupils are boosting the school and because the faculty is boosting the pupils. XYe believe that better teachers than we have, could not be found. ln any activity that the pupils have commenced, the faculty has aided. Tvvo of our nine teachers have given us their faithful support for four years, Miss Moore and Miss Newton. Mrs. Holland has been with us two years. Mrs. Londry has taught in the Valley Junction High School before, but not for sonic time. .Xll the others have come to our High School this year. NVe can sincerely say of our faculty, A-X loyal nine, and more than worth their weight in gold, MRS. QXIQER, Principal, linglish. They that govern most often make the least noise.
