Class of 1973
Craig, this is my 6th grade class picture, held in the Thurston School, 1966-67 school year . This is the first year that LU-T began holding classes at Thurston after the merger. If I recall correctly, classes four, five, and six were bused and held over there. The class of ’73 went there one year, and were back at LU for grades seven and up. Students are ; frt. row,l-r : Vicki Scott, Kelly Hoshor, myself, Cheryl Henderly, Jeff Wiley, Dan Roshon, Carl Tschopp, Sarah Smith. Second row: Charles B. Cooley- teacher, Don King, Lanny McGill, Phyllis Eldridge, Jillinda Arledge, Roxanne Smurr, Lavonna Stevens, Kim Sauerbrei, David Reese. Third row: Janet Clum, Darla Jividen, Greg Guisinger, Jeryl Robinson, James George, Dee Wooster, Rick Clum, Gary Webb. Fourth row: Greg Forbes, Greg Fisher, Susan Jones, Wayne Burns, Tom Leitnaker, Shirley Persinger, Judy Hodge.
If I recall, there were 3 -sixth grade classes over there, and Ray Jones’ wife, Mariam had a class and I can’t recall who had the other one. Ronald Packard was the principal . ( he did use a board, if necessary. Yes,Craig, if you are wondering, I had a demonstration !! ) Hopefully someone else can help out further.
