FACULTY LIVES OUTSIDE SCHOOL Teachers often complain, We aren't people to our students. Students are frequently amazed to see teachers outside school - in the grocery store, on the tennis court, at the pool - acting human.” As students, we tend to forget that teachers have any real existence away from the classroom and the blackboard. Their whole purpose in life seems to lie in assigning homework, grading tests, and insisting on complete sentences. To learn more about the unknown human” side of our teachers, we asked them, What is your favorite subject outside of school? We then followed them home to find out. And this is what we discovered! Miss Diane Sayre said. Relaxing is my favorite subject. To relax, i sometimes choose to play cards, watch TV, play the piano, or visit friends. But most of all my favorite subject outside of school is being myself. It's nice to be able to go home and be your own person. Mrs. Edna Chaffin said, My favorite subject is reading.' ’ Mr. Verlon Till said. My home: everyone needs something. someone, or someplace to help him escape from the daily routine. Mr. Roger Elliott said. My favorite subject is listening to music, because it's very relaxing, especially after school -after a 'hard day in the pits!' 25
