School Days – 1943 Plus

I thought that in retirement there would be time to do all the things I have put onto the bucket list.

But it is all interrupt driven.While it is still “fresh” in my memory

 

Miss Langdon and Mrs Keating were the kindergarten teachers

Mrs Rosenberg was the first grade teacher

Miss Hamburg was the second grade teacher

Mrs Reardon was the third grade witch (sorry.. teacher)

I had accidentally broken her milk bottle vase and I was literally hung up to dry in the coat closet My father replaced it with a genuine Chinese vase and I was then treated like royalty

Miss Connelly was the fourth grade teacher

I was out of school for a month with a burst appendix. When I returned, you had transferred to another school

Mrs Gellis was the fifth grade teacher

and Mrs Brown nee Carbone was the sixth grade teacher

 

We visited Mrs Brown when she was 99 years old in 2000; I have to locate the photos I had taken of the visit.
