English teacher, Miss Sarah Jo Mclnnis: This year, 1 would like to see literature and drama come alive on all levels, 9-12. Here at J.K.A., 1 think everybody loves each other, and we've got the greatest students in the world. In the future, 1 would like to keep growing, and letting my students teach me more than I could ever teach them.11 History teacher, Mrs. Karen Miller: 1 '1 would like to establish a relationship between my students, so I can enjoy them, and they can enjoy my classroom. 1 hope the students will learn to gather information so that I can be a helpful guide and not a dispenser of facts.'' 21

Everyone will work together. Miss Mclnnis Mrs. Victoria Mathews, English teacher: Because of small classes, 1 am able to work with each student individually. I'd like to see the students think independently, realize that the teacher won't always be there, and that teachers are only human and they make mistakes.'' French teacher, Mrs. Catherine Kennedy: This year, 1 hope my students will have a better understanding of French, and will be able to communicate with a French person. The school is really in shape this year. We have a fantastic headmaster, who is all action in helping the school.'' Mr. Ted von Keller, history teacher: ' 'The thing that has impressed me most at J.K.A. is the relaxed, friendly manner of everyone at the school. 1 hope that this year my students will become more openminded and curious and learn new ideas and ways of doing things.'' 20

— Mrs. Tyler I want to help somebody. Mrs. Sarah Paulling, math teacher: here at JKA, the students have to work for what they get. I believe this builds character and discipline. Because of the smallness, everyone here is extremely close. I want my students to love math; I'm trying to prepare them for col- lege . Math teacher, Miss Deborah Lynn: I think the good qualities of the school are the small classes and the fact that the administration is so close to the classroom. In my classes this year, I think the students have gotten a good background in a certain course, and I have tried to get them to the point where they don't hate math. In the future, I want to be doing more than classroom activities; I would like to become involved with Jk IB a Mrs. Paulling Typing teacher, Mrs. Sylvia Little: I've been at JKA for a long time. I helped start the school, and I love teaching. The school is a family-type thing. The students have a lot of enthusiasm and they love the school. Everybody cares for each other. As for my course, I hope my students now have a knowledge of the typewriter and will be able to use it for their own personal use. 22
