Our Faculty in the Community HOME IS WHERE YOU MAKE IT Every school system has its teachers. Unfor- tunately, they are often isolated in this realm. We are very proud of the part our teachers play in the community life of Alta. Some of them have made their permanent homes here and are interested in the future of the town. You'l1 find them in var- ious churches, leading choirs and teaching Sunday school. During the summer their work takes them to business houses and the community swimming pool. In case of fire they do their part with the volunteer fire department. As high school students, we have found our teachers ready to help us with all our problems. This then, is our faculty.
