For 37 years I taught at Forney High School and used the LIBRARY in some way or another almost every day of the school year—and most of the time it involved books and students. Many of my “paper writers” marveled at the information we found! But even 40 years ago, some “English studiers” finished more quickly than others and “creatively” used the resources.
On a Wednesday, near the end of July, I stopped in at our LIBRARY to talk to Cherise Nichols, Head Librarian, about the upcoming school year and to also view/study some paintings displayed there.
As I had entered the parking area, I noticed that numerous spaces were filled, and once inside the building, I discovered why— Professor BRAINIOUS was “holding court” in one of the auxiliary rooms and had a captivated crowd of children and adults of various ages. I could not stay long, but I wished my grandchildren had been visiting Vivian and me so that they could have seen the displays of science and thinking and “figuring out.” Kherington, especially, would have liked one exercise that used a basketball.
