For Her Own Dedication Ring! Slam goes the door! “All right, class, get those bananas out of your ears and take out pencil and paper. You’re going to take notes.” Thus begins a typical senior English class under the direction of Mrs. Joyce W. Barber, a teacher dedicated to knowledge and young people. Her genuine interest in students, attitude towards teaching, and presentation techniques combine with her humor to make the most stagnant mind come alive with challenging ideas. By mixing fun with hard work, Mrs. Barber always has the attention of her students. Her pupils delight in writing compositions on such topics as “How do you feel about the school rule of no lolly-gagging in the hall?” She brings Beowulf and Macbeth into the classroom with knowledge and interest. Once each year Mrs. Barber shoulders the great responsibility of arranging the Homecoming festivities. Wliile narrating the coronation of the Homecoming Queen, she adds her own bit of splendor and beauty to the occasion. During seventh period Mrs. Barber sheds a bit of her teacher’s austerity and becomes more informal as the AIXOVA sponsor. Known to the staff as “Aunt Joyce”, Mrs. Barber is held in high esteem for her guidance and quiet assurance in times of trouble and deadlines. In each of her five years at Alleghany, she has strived to create an interesting and unique ALCOVA. With great pride, admiration, and deep appreciation, the students of Alleghany County High School and her own ALCOVA staff dedicate the 1969 ALCOVA to Mrs. Joyce W. Barber, a truly dedicated teacher and friend. Possessed with a great interest in school activities, Mrs. Barber’s attention wanders a moment from the enthu- siasm of the pep rally. Mrs. Barber, busily attempting to grade papers, jokingly tries to ignore the appearance of Bill Humbert and Jean Shawver.
