SUPH LEARN This year we sophomores really began to feel like a part of MHS. Our teachers were foremost in develop- ing this attitude, because relaizing the needs of each student, they helped us develop our own abilities and individuality. We truly learned more from our teach- ers than English, algebra, biology, Latin, and world history. Many of our teachers, we found, were pretty inter- esting people with special interests and abilities of their own. Mr. Rony's knowledge of other countries and languages amazed us. We enjoyed his historical accounts and personal anecdotes that enlivened our Latin period. Mrs. Howell, Randoph Macon graduate land former MHS cheerledaerj, knew how to make biology seem easy for us. We could always tell which day she went to Emory to study for her Master of Art in teaching science, especially if she didn't have her homework! Our teachers enjoyed relaxing in interesting and different ways. Miss Outlaw particularly liked to cury up with a book of non-fiction, while Mr. Stabler enjoyed golfing and hiking. Mrs. White, Agnes Scott alumna, was typical of many of our teachers. She devoted much of her time and energy to the school and students as well as to her home, family, church, and community activities. Marietta High School is indeed fortunate in having teachers who are interested in more than just Hreading, 'writing, and 'rithmeticf' SPIRIT UF MHS Algebra is fun, says Mrs. White, tenth grade algebra teacher.
