Through i, ime and change, much is accomplished ‘A s Time Goes By” is undoubtedly a song Mr. Ouwenga can re¬ late to. Already in the midst of his twenty-first year as a math teacher at LHS, he has both seen and exper¬ ienced many changes since the 1965-66 school year, his “rookie season.” Although many don’t realize it, Mr. Ouwenga, before his marriage in 1977, was a very active teacher who busied himself with many school activities. “Before I got married, I lived in Lowell and had a lot of extra time to devote to school-related activities. Now that I have a family and live out of town, I spend most of my free time at home,” he said. Prior to becoming a husband and father, Mr. Ouwenga served as head coach for Boys ' Cross Country (1971-1976); drove a team bus for Boys ' Swimming and Boys’ Fresh¬ man Basketball; served as score- keeper timer for Boys’ Varsity Bas¬ ketball games; and filmed football games. In addition to sports activi¬ ties, he was also an adviser for FTA (now FEA) and co-adviser (with Mr. Beeching) of the Math Science Club. Today, he still devotes much of his time to being an adviser of the Computer Club and helping students (as well as driving them) to the Chesterton Math Contest and “Jets” Team Competition.

She can finally put away her red pen and grade book. Mrs. Foss has always enjoyed teaching English, her favorite sub¬ ject. To gain the students’ interests, she assigns creative projects and skits for literature. If someone walks by a classroom with students dressed up in costumes, don’t be alarmed because it’s probably one of Mrs. Foss’ students dressed up like a character in a novel. Finally, after teaching students to use their abilities to the fullest for 20 years, Mrs. Foss can now spend time concentrating on her own tal¬ ents and interests. I have given my contribution to education and now it’s time to move on and do the things I didn’t do earli¬ er,” she said. She intends to travel more and play bridge without having to be on a time schedule. She doesn’t have any regrets, although she will miss the students whom she has watched mature. Leaving, changing and doing what each of us wants is a part of life. Now Mrs. Foss can put away her graded papers for a deck of cards and days of relaxation. After 20 years of term papers, tests and speeches, Mrs. Foss deserves a permanent summer vacation. Sandi Woodke Mrs. Foss’ last College English class threw her a retirement party during class.
