All I can recall is he was caring and generous with his words.

School pictures

Fri, 06/06/2008 - 4:12pm — emailspyro

Every year they would take pictures of the classes.  It would be fun to see those pictures and the kids we went to school with.  Does the school still have the pictures?  Can they post them?

What I remember most about Armstrong school

I remember the annual Christmas programs the the 7th and 8th grade students presented for the other students in the school and for the neighborhodd residents. Mrs Copeland taught us all the music and Mrs Raddits helped with the stageing. We looked forward to it every year wehter we watched or participated.
