Margaret Freyaldenhoven, social studies teacher, delights her students with tidbits that would liven and classroom. She always adds small, little known facts whether the lesson is about the Civil War, Get- tysburg Address, or a demonstration of her son’s latest karate moves. Yes ... that’s right. Little Mrs. Freyaldenho- ven, a black belt! One day she was tell- ing her students about how her children run around her house making noise. It seems that her oldest son, Chad, has an idol, Chuck Norris, Chad goes around practicing his karate chops in his best Chuck Norris style. Mrs. Frey must demonstrate everything she talks about. Taking everyone by surprise, she lets out the loudest “Hi-Chu” any karate master could ever accomplish. In the ensuing mass confusion, students could be seen picking themselves off the floor where they had taken refuge to escape the master. In her quieter moments, Mrs. Frey teaches U.S. History, Global Studies, and World History. One of Mrs. Freyaldenhoven’s con- temporaries is Mrs. Patti Hollis. Like Mrs. Frey, Mrs. Hollis also likes to thrill her students with displays of her martial arts ability. Rather than using the exotic weapons of the Orient, Mrs. Hollis has been known to use any ole thing at hand. In an attempt to get a student's attention one day, Mrs. Hollis grabbed an eraser and zap. She got his attention when it landed on the back of his head. Mrs. Hillis’ classes are in big demand because she teaches 9th, 10th, and 11th Grade English. Mrs. Anita Fowler completes the English department. Mrs. Fowler teaches 7th, 8th and 9th Grade English. Enjoying (he discussion on U.S. Presidents, Shelley Thurman, junior, listens at- tentively to Mrs. Freyalden- hoven. 20 From Erasers To Karate Chops

Life became complicated last fall when school started, and I found that I had signed up for accounting. This takes two periods out of my precious day, but I decided to stick with it. After all, I might need those skills. American history is a necessity of life for all ju- niors and so is English. Since I have no choice in the matter. I will try to make the most of the situa- tion. I decided to be involved in athletics because of its benefits. Just think, no- where else can you be an active person with a great group of friends. Not only will I enjoy the sport and the thrill of winning, but I also have the socializing experience of the out-of- town trips. Another new opportuni- ty presented itself and I decided to join choir. Now I can be involved in an- other group that will help my social life. Since I have such a hec- tic day planned, I must have seventh period study hall. I decided immediate- ly that I can do without all that kid stuff and plan to skip out and go to Hector. I had started to get a Coke at Mac’s and in walks Mr. Bull. After he got through with me, I decided imme- diately that my number one chore would be MA- KIN' THE GRADE.
