I think we had the nicest teacher in 7 -8th class Deloris and she loved music and art ; she seemed to love kids and have patience. She was the best teacher I think I had at John Hay . Our principle was Miss stoner I think I saw her too much; and had to bring my parent in to see her...I got in trouble for something ...dont remember what but my mom was not too happy .I thought I was just picked on by the teachers. I was a good kid wasn't I?
