They were the teachers who had been at Brandon High School fifteen or twenty or more years and who could report firsthand on how things used to be and how they had changed. Among them were Mr. RC. Jones, Mrs. Clara Crabb, Mrs. Peggy Osborn, Mrs. Mercedes Her- nandez, Mrs. Carole Valdespino, and Mr. John Jelsovsky. Among the major changes the group had seen were the new school building and its addition, dou- ble sessions, the community's changing from rural to urban, the improved courses and course offerings, the growth from 35 teachers to over 190, and the huge growth of enrollment. All agreed on the same fine points of Brandon, such as, Brandon has the best teaching atmos- phere in the county, I love the commun- ity and the students, and I wouldn't have traded Brandon for any other school in the U.S.A.

Down in room 333, Dorothy, from the land of Oz iAlias Mrs. Peggy Hilll could be found teaching leadership. In the school Resource Department the officer on duty was caught punking out, and some So- cial Studies teachers were even known to sabotage each others' desks! It could never be said that teachers at Brandon were dull or lacked school spirit. These instructors became a endless source of amusement, amazement and encouragement for their students. They became a part of our school years that would not, and could not be forgotten. Showing his chool spirit, Deputy Tom Allen punks out! H urning ork into Fun if MW. EQ ' Faculty X 335
