I nearly got my ear twisted off by a 2nd grade teacher on my first day in her class in the early 60s. I didn’t act up again even once in her class and I still remember her name to this day.

Mrs Vince got my attention from that point forward.

Our 10th grade bully, who looked like a junior Rocky Marciano, started a fistfight with our spindly music teacher, Mr. Eggert. I shouldn't have been concerned: Mr. Eggert had decades of leading musicians, had really strong upper body strength, and shortly put our bully (Coleman) back into his chair.

Amazing what you can remember from 1958! :)

I had a 8th Grade science teacher who genlty put her hand on my shoulder and squeezed my trapezius with a Vulcan Death Grip and quietly said, “If you don’t straighten up you’re going to flunk this class.” My reaction was, I’m gunna show her. I studied like hell and got straight A’s in the class.

Thank you, Miss Reed for caring.
