English is the key English, many teachers agree, is the key to education. All of the English teachers at Northside worked exceptionally hard this year to impart this basic skill to all of their students. Even though their free time was cut, and many late nights and gray hairs added, because of the new curriculum re- quirements handed down by QBE, the ded- icated professionals still managed to give 110% to their students. As a result of their skill and encouragement, many students developed a better understanding of their own language. As a result of Mrs. Murchison’s skillful teaching, many students have gained a better knowledge of the English language. Tt was the stiong Teaching Saft oi Novldside Thal encouraged we to be a Teacher. Mrs. Susan Murchison, presently a English teacher at Northside, attend- ed our school in 1968, and graduated in 1970. During her years at North- side, she became a valuable asset. She participated in Chorus and Beta club and was also Valedictorian of her graduating class. She says that while she attended Northside, things were very different. Matt Arthur was the principal, girls could not wear jeans, only dresses, and there was a juke box in the cafeteria. She also states that during her high school years, more emphasis was placed on academics than school events and activities. There were no vocational programs, and a very small number of students worked. While many things were different, some things remained the same. Mr. Dyson was here then, also. The Northside-Warner Robins rivalry was as important then as it has been re- cently, and the decorations for Spirit Week were customary then, too. Susan Murchison went on to Ma- con Junior College, Mercer Universi- ty, and Georgia College after gradua- tion to prepare herself to become a teacher. We at Northside are very glad that she did, because we appre- ciate her contribution to our high school days. Thanks, Mrs. Murchi- son.
