So much can be said about her that one page cannot contain it. Of her 31 years of teaching, 24 were spent here at Rock Port. She first taught the elementary grades. She has taught speech in the last few years along with senior high english. She has had a hand in the education of all grades except freshmen. Over the years, Mrs. Salfrank has collected many fond memories. Three stories which she favors are: A Senior English class was to write sonnets. Being typical high school students, they weren't very enthused. After much talk, Mrs. Salfrank said, Well, what do you have to lose? A big, husky boy from the rear said, Our self- respect. When Mrs. Salfrank was teaching at Westboro, she was in charge of an operetta, Under the Sugar Plum Tree. She asked the first and second graders if any of them had a sprinkling can that could be used in the play. One little blonde angel said, l got one Miss Batty, but it leaks. Mrs. Salfrank said simmer down only once. She knew the minute she said it that once was enough. From the back ofthe room came, SHhhh hhh hh! I I With these kinds of memories, she not only made her teaching career enjoyable to herself but to her students as well. The students and school personnel greatly appreciates her efforts and hard work for the benefit of all of her students. THANK YOU, MRS. SALFRANK. , ' 'Q outhoriiy outhoriiy is o weapon, whose effects depend on who holds it in his hands ond ot whom it is oimed. o concerned looord of educotion Making decisions on a variety of matters, ranging from improvements of the Stadium to the installation of a coke and candy machine in the student center, the board and administration provided the best possible education with a pleasant atmosphere. Despite the pressures and responsibilities of hiring teachers, pro- viding funds, setting up curriculum, and determining school policy, the board was aware of the individual student and kept pace with the needs of the school system.

After school hours he could be seen on the golf course coaching the school team, which incidently won all of their meets. The Board of Education is made up of six members who are elected by the citizens of our school district. They are responsible to the people for all matters pertaining to our school.

They are the 9th and 10th grades taught by Mrs. Mar- quart and the 11th and 12th grades taught by Mrs. Sal- frank. Mrs. Salfrank teaches senior literature, also, but it was too large this year so Miss Janet Conboy taught the extra half. Miss Conboy's class did plays and wrote compo- sitions, Mrs. Marquart's classes gave oral book reports and studied grammar, and Mrs. Salfran.k's class read Shakespeare.

Not only did they construct for their own use, but a great deal of equipment was made for the ag shop. Class study involved animal husbandry care, woodworking, welding, record keeping, live- stock judging, field crops identification, study of farm chemicals, overhauling and repair of engines, farm management study in which they planned a 160 acre farm. lt was a busy year that reaped rewards when ll went to state contest. Cooperation is shown between John Amthor and Greg Groff. Everytime we entered the industrial arts area, we saw new projects and smelled fresh paint and varnish. Mr. Robert Welsch, instructor, taught the boys the careful use of power tools and instructed them in wood and leather projects. Many good looking and useful articles were constructed, such as tables, chests, gun racks, cutting boards. The mechanical drawing class learned to read blue prints and drew up scale plans of their own. A beneficial field trip to Kansas City was enjoyed when the class visited businesses pertaining to their class work. Right: Mr. Welsch and Steve Bertram discuss plans in a mechanical drawing class.

' Mr. Denny Kurtz was the privileged soul who taught health and driver's ed. His duties took him from the class- room to the roads. Miss Janet Deck supervised girl's P, E, She taught the girls some new games such as Speed-Away and tried to keep them physically fit. Mr. Richard Whitford also shares in this job by teaching boys physical education. Every other day, Miss Deck and Mr. Whitford take turns going to the elementary building to teach elementary physical educa- tion in the hopes of someday building fine athletes.

This project was in connection with UNICEF. y B. Roberts C. Rosenbohm I 2'-Q W sf' ,F ,W KZ ,fs ' ,ifftrf is f .6 K Era D. Rosenbohm J. Rightsell V L ip , , S. Salfrank gf Q r K, M. SchulP .

Q pgs, , noiure is helpful To second grade The second grade learned from their math, history and English books, as well as from nature. Both Mrs. Nigh's class and Mrs. Peck's class went on a field trip to Rock Creek to study the environment of our small community. Added to each classroom was an aquarium and various kinds of fish. The students learned about sea life and the environment in which the fish and other sea animals live. As a special project, the students made butter, spread it on crackers, and had a party. Lower left, OK kids, we break out in one hour. Below: Hey, Teacher, look what's on page 24.

' They studied multiplication, divis- ion, and regrouping. ln history they studied the individual in the com- munity, and had a good look at the world around them. With the help of their teachers, Mrs. Moe and Mrs- Kirby, they made cereal pictures and other art projects. Barlow Bennington Bogenreif Bray Brockman S. S. M. L. K. R. Brusha M.

These stu- dents were kept busy studying the election of 1972, and held their own county, state, and national run-offs. They also started on a pro- gram of more complicated Mathematics, then had con- tests to sharpen their abilities. During the year, the students entered the world of the amoeba and paramecium. This was done with the help of some cleverly-built microscopes. The students and teacher all seemed to enjoy this new tool, and put it to great use. This year, the fourth graders of 1972-1973, were provided a good foundation for that well needed education. ,. A '1' V S. Morton SL, S' T , qw 3' g M. Nielsen T T ' 'Y' .T ji - f .. K P.

One of these privileges was to vote for class officers, quarterly. The sixth graders enjoyed decorating their doors to add to the Twelve Days of Christmas theme. Also, they celebrated Christmas with a party and amateur hour. ln the field of study, the students got their first look at creative writing. Studying electronics, atomic energy, and ancient history, although hard at first, gave the sixth graders a preview of what to expect in their years of junior high. 45 special classes for rock port Special classes such as these pictured help students to better understand their subject matter through a more con- centrated study of reading and math.

They took on a deeper and better understanding of science, math, and history. Many left grade school with sad eyes While others left with high hopes for the years ahead. They saw the ideals of high school as they really are. They have come a long Way, and have a long way to go, but there will be much enjoyment along that way.

P. With the exception of golf, and softball, all these sports were held in the gym at noon. Boys, girls, faculty, and mixed teams were formed in each noon-hour sport. Softball and wrestling took place during P. E. classes and golf was an after-school event. lt is now hoped that some of these games will become conference sports. 135. ff' ieC'7S4'AE .sr: rstt 99 blood, sweof, ond Teo rs. From the first days of pre-season prac- tice until the last minute of the last game, the R. P. Jays put all they had into one cause, the cause of playing and to winning ball games. The Jays started off the season with hopes of a conference title, and another possible playoff bid, until disaster hit. ln- juries caused the Jays to start over for several weeks, and not until late in the season did the entire first string play as a whole. As a result of these injuries, the Jays recorded a 5-4 season. 5 2 E fi 2 22 Front row, left to right: Ron McMa- hon, Ken Herron, Ron Ross, Dan Stanton, Bill Anders, Jim Clodfel- ter, Mike Million, Dave Frede, Ken Brown.

The boys lost several games by a slim mar- gin but this gave them the incentive to try harder the next game. The most exciting game of the season was the one with Hopkins during the Fairfax Tournament. The game was won in the last seconds by a half-court desperation shot. There were many games like this one but not all of them had such a happy ending. A,.,: 1 .,.:,,. z H SA Rats, I forgot my belt again! T Mppp TT. T r rsfi 5 WW . if.

Jim was real excited to leave. friv- r st. louis At two o'clock A.M., May 18th, the seniors left Rock Port for the Home of the Blues--St. Louis. They filled their tummies with a good breakfast from the House of Pancakes in Columbia. The first stop for the seniors was Grant's Farm. There, they saw zoo animals, a beautiful park, and the famous Clydesdale horses. From Grant's Farm they went to the St. Louis Zoo. Monkeys, otters, seals, and other animals entertained the seniors all afternoon. After a long wait for the bus, they reached their final destination-- Six Flag's over Mid -America, where they rode wild rides, bought souvenirs, and some kids even slept. lt was a long 31 hours, but it was fun.
