MISS .IOSEPHINE M. SPARKS, B.S., M.A. Miss Josephine Sparks may be heard saying Since when did you become an English teacher? in her English IV classes. She is also kept busy teaching humanities. Absentees are a thorn in her side. Miss Sparks attended Ohio State University, University of Southern Cali- fornia, and Columbia University. In her spare time she enjoys camping, traveling and hiking. MISS THEODORA LEONARD, B.A. When asked about her hobbies, Miss Theodora Leonard replied, Correcting papers - great fun. Teddy teaches junior and senior English. This is her third year at Rogers. Miss Leonard enjoys reading, creative writing and dancing, much of her spare time is spent at the down- town library. This spirited redhead feels that people are more important than things. New to Rogers' curriculum this year is an ex- perimental team-teaching program, being initi- ated in the English IV classes. This type of class features two teachers, which allows for greater freedom and expression in teaching. Although it has been here scarcely a year, this program has already proved that it has many valuable points. Lan uage studies are valuable, for s5eO. MRS. MARGARET ANN SNIDER A.B., M.Litt. Familiar to the English students of room 205 is Mrs. Margaret Snider. In her first year at Rogers, Mrs. Snider has her schedule filled with English II classes. While working toward her degrees, she attended West Liberty State College and the University of Pittsburgh. Although her spare time is limited, Mrs. Snider tries to find time to curl up with a good book. Listening to opera and enjoying drama and cooking are listed as favorite pas- times ofthe new faculty member. MR. ROGER PHILLIPS, B.S. As nervous public speaking students face their fellow classmates, they also face the scrutinizing eye of their instructor, Mr. Roger Phillips. English II and drama fill his other curricular duties. Bowling Green State University and the University of To- ledo were the locations of Mr. Phillips' higher learning. Favorite hobby of Mr. Phillips is record collecting, while he also greatly enjoys giving his son, Mark, a bath. His students may agree with his ex- pression, The milk of human kindness flows by the quart in my veins - some- times. 14 MRS. GERALDINE CHRISTENSEN, B.E. Taking over the duties of cheerleader adviser, Mrs. Geraldine Christensen is another new addition to the Rogers fac- ulty. Finding her place in the English de- partment, Mrs. Christensen fills her days with the dangling participles and mis- placed commas of her English II and Ill classes. In order to receive her degree, Mrs. Christensen attended Hamline Univer- sity in St. Paul, Minnesota, and the Univer- sity of Toledo. Bowling and bridge find their way into her spare time, as a few sports. Headquarters for this English teacher is room IIO. XR
