Hook,Planned And . and, ii you don't do it. I'll take you behind the woodshed! This is one of the many quotes which identify Miss Margaret B. Dietrich, who possesses the rare qualities of spontaneous humor and impartial friendliness. Miss Dietrich, a native Pennsylvanian, received her Bachelor of Science degree from Kutztown Teacher's College in Pennsylvania and earned her Master's degree at Columbia University. Before coming to WHS, she had diversified training in schools both in Pennsylvania and in New Jersey. Many sophomores, juniors, and seniors who have not had the pleasure of knowing Miss Dietrich in an English class know her through the Literary and Writer's Clubs, of which she is the able adviser. Everyone in these clubs will agree that her presence adds an unmatchable sparkle and zest to each meeting. Besides this, she knows how to stop tactfully the arguments of a writing genius or a literary critic. During an English class, she is a model of patience. She is especially noted for this when it comes to explaining an incomprehensible soliloquy from Macbeth. Always willing to give up her own time, Miss Dietrich gladly advises a student on anything from a term paper or an essay to a choice of colleges. Her infectious spirit of enthusiasm, thoughtfulness, kindness, and modesty makes her our first choice for Teacher-of-the-Year. 4
