The first few years I taught at Granite South were rather enjoyable. Then came the stu- dent caliber change. I guess you can say that teaching is like marriage, it ' s for better or for worse. “I have enjoyed working with students. That may sound a bit trite, but it is ab- solutely true. Yes, there have been changes, but im- portant changes, no. Hair became longer then it got shorter. Basically I have en- joyed teaching.” Teaching has been good. would not have stayed for 25 years or let alone for the 29 years I have stayed unless I did not enjoy my work. There have been disappointments over the years, but of course that is all a part of life. It has been an enjoyable period of my life. 25-YEARS 11

A quarter of a century sounds like a long time, but it really isn ' t. I feel as if I have taught half the people in Granite City. In many in- stances, I have taught all the members of a family. I can say, without reservation, that working with people has been very satisfying and that I have never been bored one day. “It’s been fun, but a lot of hard work! Yes, I have seen many changes in students, particularly in attitude, but there are still plenty of fine, eager students to teach.” I can remember when teachers sponsored classes and held class parties. When I began teaching, the 8th grade was in the building. I miss the closeness, and the family-like relation between the faculty. The teachers lived in Granite City, now they are spread out. It has been a good place to work. Teaching is an enjoyable career, but after 32 years I think it ' s time to quit. 10 25-YEARS
