Rush's Story
I remember 4 outstanding teachers from my years at Western, but I didn’t remember their names until I went back and looked at the 1964 yearbook on the website.
English teacher - a small thin young woman, very vivacious, I remember her with red hair and green eyes, but could be mistaken since I probably had a crush on her. I think she was my homeroom teacher for one of my years.
Mrs Girard, very french. I...Expand for more
remember her trying to make me to pronounce 'murmur' correctly.
Miss Saunders taught Russian, I was just fascinated by the language itself, new symbols, new sounds, sort like a secret language.
Mr Coover taught Mathematics, I loved using my compass and ruler to bisect, draw circles, lines etc to prove that with simple instruments you could make two or 3 or 4 equal parts and prove the geometric theorems.
