Teacher of the Year, 1973 If you saw someone driving around North Branch in an old dilapidated pick-up with about 15 guys hanging out the back, it was probably Mr. John Schneider — our teacher of the year! Mr. Schneider came to North Branch High 7 years ago from the University of Michigan on his first teaching assign- ment. Apparently he liked it here, for he's still with us and now resides in Kingston with his family. During the time he has been teaching here he has become actively involved in many of the extra-curricular activities of Our World. Mr. Schneider has enjoyed coaching the Cross- Country and Track team and. according to the guys, has added much of the enthusiasm and determination necessary for a winning attitude. He has also found time to sponsor the Varsity Club. The students here at North Branch would like to congratu- late Mr. Schneider and encourage him to keep on truckin’ in his Chevy pick-up.

The Junior class presented Dancing in the Moonlight. the 1973 Junior-Senior Prom, on May 19th. The prom was held in the high school cafeteria for the second year in a row. The prom was scheduled from 9 p.m. to I a.m. in order for couples to dine before or after they attended the formal. The back door was used as the entrance so less of the hall needed to be decorated. The atmosphere of the prom was representative of a night club, with silver stars glitter- ing against a black back drop. A huge mirror-globe above the center of the dance floor sent reflected light shimmer- ing to every corner of the room. Providing the music were the Bushmen from Saginaw.
