Many Teachers Work Toward Higher Degrees Finding teachers for the consolidated school was not a hard job since most of those who had been employed at Hamilton and John Randolph elementary schools wished to continue their work at the new school. Only Mrs. Aurelia Hazlegrove, Vii eninte tere, ARO who had formerly taught in the county, = Fourth Grade. was needed to complete the faculty for grades one through seven. In January, however, Mrs. Juanita Simonini joined the group to replace Mrs. Carolyn Baber who gave up her position because of family duties. Mr. Paul Thompson be- came an additional member of the high school faculty, while Mr. Henry Morris came as a replacement. Those who went to summer school or attended night classes in order to become better qualified for their positions were Mrs. Frances Hamlett, Mrs. Ruth Stimpson, Mrs. Dorothy Putney, Mrs. Robbie Whitlock, Mrs. Catherine w Garrett, Mr. Paul Thompson, and Mr. Jimmy Kindle. The latter received his master's degree in education in June. MRS . JUANITA E. SIMONINI teaches the sixth grade and one class of high school French.

Consolidation Requires Additional ale To prepare food for an expanded student body, Mrs. Louise Meinhard was given six helpers. These ladies worked in a new kitchen and each day fed approximately 500 students who ate in three shifts. Five students, Earl Kirby, Jimmy McPherson, C. T. Stimpson, Tony Mitchell, and Larry Atkins, helped with the job of transporting children to the school. Not a single school bus accident occurred during the year. Harold Gary served the school as A — custodian for the twentieth year. Be- cause of his increased work load, Mrs. Sip rne Be eG SetINC Ee cpisane asset i Alberta Carter was employed to help him with the cleaning tasks. Harold's ae importance to the school was fully re- ae alized when he broke his ankle just before the end of the school year. The accident occurred while he was mowing grass on the campus.
