We Will Always Mr. Shuford. Without him our school would never be quite the same. Mr. Carson, who taught us that there was more to running a farm than hoeing corn and milking cows. All the literature and grammar we learned in Mrs. Perley ' s English classes. Our Algebra and Geometry classes, taught by an ever patient and helpful Mrs. McCoy. The hard time we had keeping up with our shorthand and typing lessons, taught by Mrs. Woody. Mrs. Humphries, who kept things in the office running on an even keel. Mr. Nesbitt, as he patiently explained the mysteries of science to his Chemistry and Physics classes. The English we learned as freshmen and sophomores under the guidance of Mrs. Headlee.
