MEMORIES OF GHS

***Once Upon a time I was a student at Germantown high. My teacher was Mr. Weiss, instructor of Distributive Education. We were given the tools needed to go out into the work world Had I realized I would be working for the next thirty years or more I might may have rethought my decision. Just kidding I really enjoyed my time in the class and on the job. ***Gym class was good as it kept me fit for all I had to do once I got to work. ***I was the senator of my class. That gave me a little time out of class and then I got to report what changes or information I needed to pass on to my classmates. ***Biology class was lots of fun as there was always someone there that thought dissecting a frog or whatever was gross. ***There was a time when I was in English class that I could not wait for lunch. I broke a piece off my tuna sandwich and boy did it light up the room. I can just see my teacher walking up and down the rows trying to find out who was eating. I did not get caught but I did not eat again. ***Lots of good memories - “Once upon a time at Germantown High…”
