Laingsburg High School - Looking Glass Yearbook (Laingsburg, MI)

Text from Pages 1 - 88 of the 1977 volume:

THE 1977 LOOKING GLASS is dedicated to ROBERT (PER) BLACKLEDGE Mr. Robert Blackledge, also known by many as Per , was born May 20, 1918. He was the oldest child of four. Per comes from an educationally oriented family. Both of his parents were teachers. His father died in 1971 and his mother is alive and well at the age of 82. Per started working for the Laingsburg Community Schools in 1948. At that time he was a substitute bus driver. Since then he has served as a mechanic, custodian, full time bus driver, and in 1968 he and his wife Edythe were the junior class advisors. Mr. and Mrs. Blackledge have volunteered to drive and chaperone countless athletic trips, the Saturday bowling bus, and club and class trips. Many of these times he has not charged the school for his work. Today Mr. Blackledge is the assistant transportation supervisor. He organizes buses and their drivers for field trips and athletic trips. Through the years Per has acquir- ed the qualifications to become a Jack-of-all-Trades . 1 CONTENTS Dedication Page Seniors......... Juniors......... Sophomores . . Freshmen . . . . Homecoming . .
