In 1973, a starry-eyed
senior marched down the
aisle to receive her
diploma. This year she
has returned to WMHS
teaching English and
speech. Miss Nancy
Mann's first thought
about teaching at the
home of Western Pride
was "Yippee! It's
air-conditioned and much
nicer!"
Having taught at
WMJHS, Coach Buddy
Reed said, "The students
and faculty have shown
tremendous support in all
areas of the school."
Coach Reed said he
enjoys the students
because he likes their
company and cares about
them.
"Chemistry is a
technical course that
stimulates
self-motivation," Mr.
Arnold Ford, the new
chemistry teacher said.
Mr. Ford's basic objective
was to present the basic
principle of chemistry.
"I love teaching. I'm
having the time of my
life!" said Mr. Dan
Watson, new choir
director. Mr. Watson,
explaining how the choir
functions, said, ''If
membership was
no~
restricted to present
requirements, I believe
the excellence and
effectiveness would be
diminished."
