Dedication Definitions of teachers are plentiful, but one seems particularly to describe the person to whom this annual is dedicated — Mrs. Margaret Roam. A teacher is an aggregate — She is Dignity with chalk dust in her hair, Cheer with a throbbing headache, Congeniality with a pop-test up her sleeve, Poise with a thumbtack in her chair, a Saint crucified daily by forked tongues, and Serenity buried in test papers.” Mrs. Roam has been involved in education for 32 years, all of which have been in Carter County. She consoles, cheers, and chastises her students to fit the occasion. Co- operating with faculty and administration on curricular and extra-curricular events is one for her salient characteristics. For the first time in 15 years, Mrs. Roam is no longer on the high school faculty. She is now teaching 5th grade. This assignment, although different, is not new, for she has taught 17 years in the elementary grades. Community and church organizations consume part of her time and energy, as does her weekly bowling league. We, the Hi-Lites Staff, are proud to recognize Mrs. Margaret Roam for all her numerous contributions.
