PLYMOUTH TOWNSIVP - The years often wipe memories of names and places clean, but students at Farrand elementary School will always• know the name of teacher Dorothy Sly Ma:ckenzie. Farrand PTO members Tuesday presented the , long time veteran of the Plymouth Community School District a Com- memoration plaque and named school's southwest wing in her honor. Mrs. MacKenzie,. 66, whose family once owned the land on which Farrand School stands, will 'retire Saturday from her 46-year teaching career. The 1927 gradtiate of Plymouth Central High School will retire with her husband, Kenneth, on their farm in Lucknow, Ontario. But Mrs. MacKenzie, who spent her youth in an old farmhouse on Five Mile, will take many memor- ies with her. "I've live around here all my life," said Farrand's third grade teacher, "and I'll miss Plymouth a lot. I've seen the area change from a small to .a large community." In Mrs. MacKenzie's day, stud- ents attended old Central High building for grades one through, 12. Students unable to attend the old building on.Main Street, which now houses elementary and middle school grades, travelled to oneroom country schoolhouses for primary school subjects. About one-third of Mrs. Mac- Kenzie's 1927 graduating class started off to college,- the veteran teacher recalls. . "Some of them had to drop otit.gf high school before they graduTt- ed," she admitted. "They had to go to work." 0 After high school graduation ceremonies', Mrs. MacKenzie at- tended Ypsilanti Normal School, now 8astern Michigan University, where she earned her bachelors degree in elementary education. She spent the first three years of her 46-year teaching career in the Dearborn School District before returning to Plymouth..> Until Farrand School was built in 1958, Mrs. MacKenzie taught in Central Elementary School, where her former fifth grade teacher, Nellie E. Bird, served as. principal. Mrs. MacKenkie requested a transfer to Farrand, when she learned it would be built on her parents' former land. "When I first came to Plymouth td teach, we had to buy all our own supplies like pencils and paper clips," Mrs. MacKenzie recalled with a laugh. "The school buys all that for us now." "Things keep changing back and forth," she said of teaching methods. "We'll be doing things a certain way, - and then they'll change. There'll be a repeat of the old methods every now and then." "Farrand teacher Jim Grinenko affectionately suggested naming of, the school's southwest wing in honor of Mrs. MacKenzie at a recent retirement banquet," said Farrand Principal Anne Welch. "The PTO board wanted to know what to give her as a, gift, and they took up his suggestion!" Music Results Heather-Ann Stapleton received 76 marks in her grade four London Conservatory Piano Exams. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Neil Stapleton of West •Wawanosh Township •and pupil of Mrs. Ann Baker of St. Thomas. sHoPPE-ii,s,0 Lots of 0 FREE PARKING > - NO METERS GODERICH
