Mrs. Lasko Ends Rewarding Teaching Career At the end of the first semester, Mrs. Joseph Lasko retired after 41 ' a years of teaching. Mrs. Lasko claimed her teaching career had been most rewarding and a truly satisfying profession. Upon receiving her education at University High in Kalamazoo, Western Michigan University, and North- western University in Illinois, Mrs. Lasko was prepared and determined to undertake teaching responsibilities. Her career began at Centreville High School, and later shifted to the Lincoln Junior High School in Kalamazoo. Fifteen more years were spent instructing seventh grade students at B. E. Andrews School. Her last five years of school duty involved teaching remedial math and English in Three Rivers High School. To honor this esteemed teacher, the F.T.A. held an all-school assembly as a tribute. However, retiring, like graduation, is not the end but a beginning of a new life. Mrs. Lasko plans to spend her new life traveling and enjoying summers at her Fish Lake cottage. Beginning second semester, Mrs. David Brueck replaced Mrs. Lasko in teaching remedial math and English. Mrs. Brueck re- ceived her B.S. degree from Western Michigan University. She has had previous teaching experience in the Burr Oak Community Schools. 16
