Morris Central High School - Morrisanian Yearbook (Morris, NY)

Page 13 text:

In Appreciation Mrs. Gertrude Olds is retiring this June after forty years of teaching, thirty-four of which have been in our school. Over these many years, we have come to depend upon her to advise the Seniors, direct their play, sponsor the yearbook and counsel with all. In addition to carrying a full teaching schedule. Never complaining, always cheerful, she endeared herself to all with whom she worked. We hope Mrs. Olds will enjoy a well earned rest, but we would also hope she will be available on a consulting basis for many years to come. Mr. Bernard Bryan is leaving after five very successful years on our staff and will be on the faculty of tne Sidney Central School next year. He has well earned this promotion and we wish him the best of success in his new position. Our Music Department has made rapid strides during Mr. Bryan's stay here, both in size and in performance. The recent State Festival, which he sponsored here, is evidence of the fine work we have learned to expect from him. Miss Alice Bellairs, in her short stay of one year, has made a host of friends here at school and in the community. We are sorry she has decided to locate nearer to her home in Pennsylvania. We will miss her cheery smile and her loyal participation in all school affairs. Perhaps when our railroad is built or when airplanes become more plentiful, we can prevail upon her to return to our midst. Again, to these three who are leaving, we say. '.Veil done and best wishes
