MR. ABERNATHY, whose mathematical gen- ius has made algebra and geometry two of the most interesting courses in our school, has a wit and a sense of humor that almost mat- ches his intelligence. MR. BISHOP, who is one of Roxboro High’s finest English teachers, has increased our appreciation and respect for our language. MRS. BULLOCK, one our commer- cial teachers, makes her courses truly inter- esting as well as informative. MRS. CLAYTON, whose kindly guidance has led us down the path of know- ledge and whose fine teaching has given us an inspiration to a high degree of learning, is one of the most respected and best loved of our teachers. MRS. CROWELL, the math teacher, has the distinguishing quality of being con- sidered one of the best and kindest teachers of our school. MR. CUSHWA, who is a newcomer to Roxboro High’s faculty, has already won the respect of his students for his intellect and pleasing personality. MISS HESTER makes history live again through her brilliant recounts of past and present events. MISS HOLT, another of our commercial teachers, noted for her efficiency, instills within her students qualities of businesslike working methods. MR. HOUSE, who is noted for his “wit” in the elassroom and on the playground, is also considered one of the finest of all teachers. MR. LEDFORD, another new member of our faculty, really made his English and Spanish classes meaningful. His personality and open mind can put his points across. MRS. NICHOLS, one of the best known and respect- ed teachers of the state, is particularly ap- preciated for her helpfulness, ingenuity and cheerful outlook on life. Her teaching methods are dramatic and forceful. MARY KATHER.- INE O’BRIANT, our school secretary, is al- ways willing to help in any way she can. Her spirit of helpfulness and her sunny disposition mean much to our school. aoe List We F
