Wafvllra 1-if-.zfjz -f we Fifty-one years of merits dedication From principal and teacher at the Levasy School to assistant principal at Fort Osage High School, Miss Mary Moore has served the district with a dedication hard to equal. But even more difficult to match would be the 51 years she has given to education. Arriving at six a.m. and working till five or six in the evening was a normal working day for Miss Moore. There was always a cot standing by in her office should she decide it was too late to return home when she finished her work. Besides being assistant principal, she also found time to teach algebra classes. Many freshmen and sophomores who were informed they would have Miss Moore for a class shud- dered at the thought. They had heard hours of hard work were a necessity in her classes. unending service of 1970 yearbook But when students arrived they found a very willing teacher and woman who would spend as much time with an individual as was necessary. It was that type of dedication which won her the respect of the entire student body. The students showed their appreciation in a standing ovation at the final awards as- sembly, a small, but genuine payment for 51 years of service. - Miss Moore has sponsored several organi- zations, such as Student Council. She was also responsible for the beginning of AFS.
