Marilyn's Story
I graduated from Grade 13 in 1970 the first year West Ferris was open. The senior classes were not very pleased that the school name was changed from Algonquin Composite School to West Ferris S.S. It was difficult to change buildings halfway through the year and most of the Grade 13's wanted to stay,complete our year & graduate from the old Algonquin.
Some of my friends in high school were Margy & Kathy Jamieson, Terry-Lynn McKee, Cathy Lalonde, Sue Robins, Judy DeMarco,Suzanne Larden, Marty James, Bob Geddes. I was pretty quiet & shy in high school & did not really come out of my shell until I was away at university.
I have 3 brothers who still work & live in ...Expand for more
North Bay. Michael,Meredith & Malcolm Park.
After graduation,I moved to Toronto, where I worked in at C.I.B.C for one year then went back to finish my 4 year degree at Ryerson. While in TO I shared an apartment with Bara Meranda, Karen Smith & Lynda Bender who all went to Algonquin/West Ferris. After graduating from Ryerson, I completed another year at the Faculty of Education, University of Ottawa. I started teaching high school the following year & have been living in Ottawa & teaching ever since. I love Ottawa as it has so much to offer in outdoor activities. (skating on the canal, bike paths, skiing, etc.)
So that is just a very brief snapshot.
