Mrs. Caroline Beasley

Mrs. Beasley was my kindergarten and first grade teacher. She had brown hair and was very tolerant of me. While I was very smart, I believe that I would have been diagnosed with ADD had I been going to school at this time. I remember when she told our class she was moving up to teach first grade and had picked some of us to be in her first grade classroom. I worshipped her and it was a relief that I would have the same teacher. She taught kindergarten in room 2 and first grade in room 7 at Heights elementary in Pittsburg.

At that time, our principal was Mr. Goodwin, another man I adored. Mrs. Beasley worked with another teacher named Mrs. Marsh. Mrs. Marsh also moved up to teaching first grade at that time. I believe she taught in room 8. There were two other first grade teacher, Mrs. King and a Spanish woman whose name eludes me at this time.
