This whole elementary blog idea started in 2000 when a few RHS classmates' emails spread like wildfire. This blog consists mostly of conversations regarding our 40th reunion and, of course, memories from our elementary days. As we approach our 45th reunion, please share your comments, memories and wishes on our RHS Class of '70 Facebook page. Let's start with... Are you interested in reuniting with your elementary classmates again in 2015?
So... how do I blog????
Please add a comment to any of these conversations! Look over our selection of blogs in the right menu, including those within past months. When you are feeling inspired, simply type a mesage in the "Post a Comment" text box. Underneath the comment box, open the "comment as" menu and select "name/url" (unless you have a listed profile). Type your name; you may leave the url blank. You may choose to be anonymous or include your name within the text as well. Select "Preview" if you would like to see what your comment will look like before it is published. You may choose to delete a message after it is published but it will leave a message stating "comment removed by blogger". Come on...You know you want to join us!

Mrs. Hay
Some of us had Mrs. Hay for second grade and we have the class picture to prove it! But some are saying they had Mrs. Hay for first grade! Could that be? Does anyone have the photo to prove it?
I’ve heard several people mention Mrs. Hay as their second grade teacher, and indeed there’s even a picture to document it. But I’d swear on a stack of bibles, the Koran, or whatever, that I had Mrs. Hay in first grade. And Rick, you were in my class. So can anybody back me up here or am I just twisting in the wind, as it were?
I think I vaguely remember that Mrs. Hay taught first grade and then switched to second grade the following year. But I don’t know if that’s true or if I’ve got one of those flex-memories that can be easily changed to fit circumstances.
Peggy Figlar adds... If my memory doesn't escape me I think you're right.. I had Miss Behrans in second grade, but I think Mrs. Hay also taught 2nd grade that year. There were 3 first grade teachers & all of them were in the "new" wing. Mrs. McMillan, Miss Millspaugh, and Mrs. Hay. Yeah, you're right, Bob.
Bob is right. Mrs. Hay taught first grade. I was there with Bob Elgin and Rick Bowe. Also attended second grade with Peggy Figlar and Miss Barbara Behrans. ~ John Millar

John Millar adds: John : I recently was able to confirm that Mrs. Hay did teach a 1st Grade Class. In the, "New Wing," gosh it had to be 1958 or '59.
