MARGARET RUCKER SCOTT April 8, 1905—March 6, 1967 Associated with Cumberland schools for over fifteen years, Margaret Rucker Scott came to the county in 1951 as principal of John Randolph Elementary School. She served in this position until the consolidation of the county schools in 1965, at which time she became a fifth-grade teacher in the consolidated elemen- tary school. Mrs. Scott’s dedication to the highest princi- ples of her profession brought her the respect and the admiration of all who knew her. Pos- sessing a strong Christian character, she helped those in need, pupils and teachers alike. Her life might be characterized by this creed which was carefully marked in a book on her desk: ‘‘l do not choose to be a common man; it is my right to be uncommon, if | can.”’ 15
