MR. REED (CENTER) discusses modern students ' health with physical education teachers, Coaches Atkins and Moir. MRS. CLONINGER (RIGHT) observes a home nursing demonstration put on by home econo¬ mics students Johnnie Mae Ferguson and Mary Helen Pruitt. A full schedule of classes, enough paper” work for a secretary, extra - curricular responsi¬ bilities, after school make-ups and individual help for students, practices, ticket sales, meet¬ ings, class planning, studying, paper grading-- these fill the day (and too often the night) of a teacher. Our teachers hold us to high standards of be¬ havior and work. With these high standards they maintain an always helpful and friendly attitude-- to us and to each other--that makes living and learning at MAHS both pleasant and profitable. ) 8
