Miss Anne Springs ioined Coastal's staff this year as second grade instructor. She brings with her memories ofa visit to Switzerland several years ago. The beautiful city of Lucerne with the lights reflecting on the river at night makes her wish to return some day. Miss Springs' talents cover sewing, cross-stitching, playing bridge and the piano. She has previously taught public school music and still loves to play favorite songs and arrangements. After teaching second grade for several years, Ms. Martha Burr ioined first graders this year when a second section was added to Coastal. Having taught first grade in the past, she welcomed a chance to return to this grade level of instruction. As creative outside of school as she is inside las displayed through her artistic bulletin boards and wall postersl, Ms. Burn's abilities range from cross-stitching designs for pictures to handpainting stools in bright colors. 137

Lower Qohool Ladies Stag Busy Teachers spend many hours of each day with students and lessons and text books. But all seek relaxa- tion and pleasure through activities that express their personalities. Trav- eling, creating, or playing cards adds up to busy days for the ladies of Coastal Academy's lower school. Third grade teacher Miss Marga- ret Regan discovered candle making through ,Christmas activities for her students, and she has continued to create new and unusual designs for her home. Many different sizes and shapes glow on her tables during the holiday season. Another creation that can be found making her apartment attrac- tive is handhooked rugs. Miss Regan has been pursuing this hobby for a number of years, and the lovely oval and oblong patterns add a personal touch to each room. Even though she works at a local motel during the summer, Miss Regan tries to find time to visit Flo- rida whenever possible. She espe- cially likes Tampa, Sarasota, and Lakeland.

Music floats through the hours of Miss Mary Ann McNinch's days since she teaches it during school and dances to it afterwards. Eve- ,., c, nings out that include dancing and discotheques are a special treat for her. She visited Europe two years ago, and the cathedrals, music halls, and operas of Austria and Italy were her favorite places. Www 'ff-it HE
