 Yeah, down in Guantanamo Bay ..is a familiar phrase if you were a student in Mr. Sauerwein's biology class. When he enlisted in the Navy, he experienced life in a way that makes him a perfect biology teacher — he was a salvage diver. All of his students look forward to and enjoy hearing his many sea stories. LEFT CENTER: Brimfield is a great farming community with high standards to uphold. Mr. William Cinnamon is the agricultural “expert” who prepared BHS's future farmers.
