Mrs. Joyce Downs has lived in Duncan for nine years and has taught at D.H.S. for seven years. The most exciting thing my classes have done is work with the new computer equipment, she said. Taking FBLA students to the regional conference in Anaheim was fun, she added. Mrs. Downs said that what she likes most about teaching is students who are willing to learn and excel. Mr. Rex Arnett, who spent his first sixteen years in Duncan, returned in 1984 to teach English and music. He said the most exciting thing that happened this year was with the choir at the Christmas Concert. The students enjoyed when he dressed as Beethoven and led the choir in pumpkin carols at halloween. He also enjoyed the programs with the primary and elementary children. It is always a great experience taking kids to honor choirs in Tucson and at EAC, Mr. Arnett said. Ms. Julie Hudson, D.H.S. outgoing social studies teacher, enjoys skiing, cooking, cycling, and reading. Cross- country skiing on the football field this winter was fun ' she said. She enjoys small classes so I can get to know my students better and discuss politics more thoroughly. Her Senior classes this year had the opportunity to meet Representative Jim Kolbe when he came to Duncan. even though, he said, Mrs. Downs can shoot better than I can. He also enjoys spending time with his children. Mrs. Lucia Lunt teaches English and accounting at Duncan High. She has lived in Duncan two years, having moved here from Thatcher.
