A Salute To Special Teachers MRS. JOSEPH RETIRES Mrs. Joseph and grandson Sandy on his first day of school Mrs. Ollie Joseph is retiring from the teaching profession after 30 years of ded- icated service. She started her teaching career in Mon- tana in 1915. When she returned to Wyom- ing she taught two years at Parkman and Dayton before coming back to Big Horn in 1946 as the third and fourth grade teacher. In the fall of 1947 she became Big Horn's beloved first grade teacher, and dur- ing the past 23 years she has started 423 first graders on the road to learning, in- cluding her grandson. Sandy. She was hon— ored at a Community Reception where the Board of Trustees presented her with an engraved watch in appreciation of her years of service. She now plans to tour the surrounding states and devote much time to her hob- bies of oil painting, knitting, and work- ing with her prize winning roses.

BAXTER MOVES TO ORLAND PARK, ILLINOIS Mrs. Norene Baxter, Big Horn High School Commerical teacher for 14 years, left us in the fall of 1968 to accept a new position in the Com- mercial Department of a large high school in Orland Park, Illinois. Besides regular classroom duties at Big Horn, she was also the advisor for the school newspaper, The Big Horn Mountaineer, and the school yearbook, The Big Horn Ram. The Editors, Staff and Advisor of the 1969 Ram, pay special tribute to Mrs. Baxter. We feel anyone who has sponsored 14 annuals has earned an accolade! 8

Board of Trustees President.............. Mr. Earl Hanslip Treasurer ..............Mr. Zane Hilman Clerk..............Mrs. Willi am Schroeder The school year 1968-1969 has been one of progress. The building program was completed, and the newly installed irri- gation system and lawn equipment will be of great value in the improvement of the grounds. The most important Happening was the full accrediting of the school by the State Department of Education on Feb- ruary 11th, and the approval of the Junior High School as a separate department. The dedicated work of Mr. DeJarnett and the school staff, the cooperation of the community and their financial effort to support and improve the school re- sulted in the Level II rating. This is the highest rating that can be obtained for a school the size of Big Horn.
