Page 11 text:

Mrs. Highfield In September of that same year, she came to Greenville Junior Hiqh as a history teacher. At this time she married Mr. Jack Highfield, yet continued her teaching career. Mr. Highfield is a pharmacist at the Highfield Drug Co. and has been an active participant in school and community affairs. Mr. and Mrs. Highfield are members of the Congregational Church in Greenville and have one son, Michael, who is presently a student at the University of Michigan. In her years of teaching at Greenville, Mrs. Highfield has given tirelessly of her time in many ways. In 1947 she was advisor of the school yearbook. In addition to her regular teaching duties, she was very instrumental in starting the first GHS Honor Society. She advised the Society for several years. Although she originally taught history, Mrs. Highfield is presently teaching English, particularly composition courses at high school level. The composition courses were set up and paced by Mrs. Highfield. She was also one of the promoters of Greenville's fine new English curriculum. It is clear by now that Greenville High School has been very lucky to have Mrs. Highfield on its educational staff and so the 1967 Hi-Life staff, in the name of the school, takes this opportunity to extend to you, Mrs. Highfield, our earnest appreciation and gratitude.
