DENNIS BARNES I have been the band and chorus director here for five years. Surprisingly, my major at M.T.S.U. was in music. My residence is on the banks fo the Cumberland River, and I have hobbies in photography and fishing. This student body has great potential that has not been fully realized, and teaching is an enjoyable experience involving helping enthusiastic young students. Some of these students fondly call me John.” This is my second year teaching in the resource room at CCHS. I attended Blue Mountain College and received a master's in education from Memphis State University. My home is on Stratton Blvd. in Ashland City. I don't ride horseback because I'm afraid of horses. I don't swim because I float sideways and I play one game of tennis every five years. DORA JANE DILWORTH TERRY WALLACE My wife Pat and I live in the Town Terrace Apts, in Ashland City. We have a dog named Fritzy. I enjoy sports, especially baseball. This is my first year here; I teach Resources. I taught in Ohio the past four years. A.P.S.U., Bluffton College, and Miami University are the schools I attended. I teach because I'm interested in kids and want to help them as much as I can because I know it's hard. PROJECTS 27

JUDITH SPRADLIN I enjoy history and that is why I teach American History. My B.S. and M.A. degrees were obtained at Aus- tin Peay. My husband and I live in Clarks- ville. I enjoy creative art work and I like people. My cat is Mor- timer and my dog is Mickey Rat. Of all the schools that I've been in, I like C.C.H.S. the best; the students are just great! ALVIN ROSE I live in Cheap Hill with my wife Jeannie and baby James and am the minister at the Cheap Hill Church of Christ. American and World History are the subjects I teach. My B.A. was earned at David Lipscomb College, my M.A.T. at Vanderbilt, and my M.A.Ed. at A.P.S.U. I've also done graduate work at the University of North Carolina. I've taught for six years at CCHS. Traveling, books, and country music interest me as docs the Civitan Club. I like kids and I like to be around people. WAYNE DARROW I enjoy traveling, camping, photography and auto racing. I'm married to Marcia Keith and we live in East Cheat- ham. Modern History and American History are the sub- jects I teach, and I keep a Study Hall in my sixth year at CCHS. I taught previously at PV Elementary. I went to both Tennessee Tech and Austin Peay. Teaching gives me a sense of helping someone help themselves and hopefully directing high school students to a better way of life. The students at CCHS as a whole are better than other places I've visited.

MIKE JARREAU This school is great! I've taught for 10 years. I instruct Health and Physical Education classes. Before coming to CCHS I taught at Ashland City Elementary. I am a graduate of Austin Peay with a 8.S. My wife, son, and I live in the East Cheatham Community. I enjoy hunting, fishing, gardening, and I am a yard beautifier. I teach because it's never boring and something different happens every day. At A.P.S.U. I became qualified to instruct my girls' physical education classes, and I also coach the varsity boys' basketball team. Collecting pocket knives is another interest of mine, but not as much so as playing with my two small sons Brian Douglas and Ryan Patrick. Our family lives in Pinewood Subdivision between Ashland City and Pleasant View JERE D. JORDAN After graduating from Cumberland Jr. College, I attended Austin Peay where I received my B.S. degree. Then I coached at West Cheatham Elem. before coming to CCHS. I instruct Health and Physical Education classes and I've taught for 3 years. My wife 28 and I live on Lowe Street in Ashland City.

I enjoy meeting students and teachers individually. Basically, I enjoy peo- ple. I feel I learn more every year than the students because they're all different and I'm around them so much.
