Spirit — Spirit Excels In BHS Faculty : u ‘ . ces 2 . s » ie BF Ee re ue Spirit is the key word in defining the BHS faculty. Busily they teach classes, coach teams, sponsor clubs, and accompany students to different scholastic conferences. Besides their work during the school year, some of the faculty attend colleges in the summer to acquire new teaching methods. This is the dedication of the teachers to better themselves to prepare the students. The new teachers, who joined the faculty this year, have quickly become mem- bers of the BHS picture. Through sponsoring clubs and teaching classes, they are a part of the school life and spirit. Their ability to make learning interesting is a big asset.

1967 Ivy Dedicated to Mrs. Dorothy B. Tunstall 4 — Dedication Entering the eighth grade, many of us meet for the first time a higher degree of math, which is presented in a diligent way by an industrious math teacher. Besides teaching classes of eighth and ninth grade math, she also has a sophomore homeroom. Taking most of her time, which she gives freely, is the pro- duction of the IVY. She is sponsor and advisor; each year she calmly suggests solutions to frantic staffs over last minute year- book crises. Through her work with the Quill and Scroll, she encourages ideals of better journalism and art work. In addition to these activities, she takes time in the spring to chaperon the representatives who attend the Southern Inter- scholastic Press Association Conference, which is held every year in Lexington. For this tireless devotion to us, the students, ranging from math classes, to clubs, to SIPA, we dedicate the 1967 IVY to one who serves us with devotion, Mrs. Dorothy B. Tunstall.
