However, when English teacher Sybil Dixon was hired to become one of two Curriculium Designers for Cleveland County Jam Schools, a new face, that of Jo Ann Mauney, came on the scene nine weeks into the year. Mrs. Mauney graduated from Limestone College, and taught previously at Ashebrook High School in Gastonia, North Carolina. Taking over Mrs. Dixon's Classes was not difficult, only very busy. Mrs. Mauney did not benefit from the teacher work days. She found out that she was to begin teaching Only one day before the second nine weeks period and had to take care of several days work in one day.
