AKt« Teachers Find Falling in love may well be one of the best parts about being in high school. The syndrome was not, it seems, confined to students alone. Romantic rumors circulated and wedding bells rang for several members of the teaching staff in 1986 and ' 87. The first to fall was Ms. Diane Ingram, who became Ms. Phil Kams in a San Clemente ceremony in July. The waning days of summer united two teachers, Ms. Evans of the English department and Mr. Degen of the Math department, in marriage. Their wedding was held at sunset at the Ole Hanson Beach Club in San Clemente. Mr. Prestridge liked the beach club so much that he decided to tie the knot in the same setting: shortly after the New Year began, he married Ms. Ann Harvey, a piano teacher, and they moved into his newly remodeled house in San Clemente. Unquestionably the most romantic wedding date was that set by home economics instructor Becky Oppen: she and Tim Tice got married on February 14, Valentine ' s Day, in Capistrano Beach. All of these weddings served to remind students of a simple truth that is sometimes held in doubt, that teachers are human too. 1. Mark Dressier, a former English depariment member, toasts the newly married Ms. Evans and Mr. Degen on August 29. Looking on is Best Man Jack Dickmann of the science department, who will be taken out of circulation this summer by fiancee Patty Smith. 2.
