High School Dedication This year the 1980-81 Sword staff dedicates the yearbook to a most worthy recipient. Ever since she started working here, she has always had an active interest in the school. She has been a very good teacher, who would take the time to help students personally. She has been a friend and a good listener to many a student who has come to her with prob- lems. She has been sponsor and coordinator of many events in which she has worked over and above the call of duty to present them successfully. She has shown how active and rewarding a Christian life can be. This year, we lovingly dedicate the high school portion to Mrs. Keni Wiltshire and wish her the best of luck in her future plans. Mrs. Keni Wiltshire

“This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.” I Timothy 3:1. “Seekest thou great things for thyself? Seek them not.” Jeremiah 45:5. Aspiration to leadership is an honorable ambition but will not always be accepted by all Christians without a measure of reservation. Several years ago our school needed a leader; we were seeking a lady to become the Vice-Principal of our elementary school. Through careful prayer and interviews, the Lord settled our minds to select Mrs. Pat Goodwin. Why? Was it because of her experience-no; because of her credentials-no; because of her seeking the position-no. As important as these qualities are, we considered something greater. We selected Mrs. Goodwin because she realized the two passages at the head of this tribute. She desired to be effective in the service of the Lord and realized the high potential of her life. Mrs. Goodwin, through the years, has proved her true aspiration. Never have her ambitions been self-centered; never “great things for thyself’ but always pointedly exposed and stigmatized unworthy motivation. For this she has earned the respect and love from parents, students, faculty, staff and particularly the board of directors and administration of Augusta Christian Schools. The 1980-81 Yearbook Staff proudly dedicates the elementary portion of this book to Mrs. Pat Goodwin, Elementary Principal.
