The December list will be the top 30 most memorable teachers/staff (see rules below), and tonight, we're remembering professeure DEBORAH GROFF (seen here in her yearbook pic with one of her many scarves, bonus link below to an article from the local paper about an art show the French club [and Spanish club] apparently took to the William Penn museum).
Mrs. Groff taught French -- and she also was the teacher most likely to slip into a high school boys' rêve humide (unless the boy was a pre-gay, and then he probably just liked her for her couture).
And, on a personal note, I never had a French class ... and so I only knew her for two things: 1) as the subject of a lot of inappropriate teenage boy gossip and 2) as someone who took her small town students all the way to Europe every so often -- which maybe kind of explains why she's showing up so high on this countdown.
Here's to you, Mrs. Groff!
RULES FOR THIS TOP 30 LIST: Honorees must be one of the ninety individuals listed in the faculty pages of the '89 yearbook (which means two thirds of the list are already not going to be referenced). Honorees may also be selected from the photos of support staff as well (so long as they are on the surrounding pages of the same section). Honorees must be memorable (if there are no stories, then there will be no post about that person). Honorees are chosen and ranked by me (if you disagree, start your own list on your own blog). All memories are believed to be accurate (but are being told through the lens of thirty or more years, so ... you know.)
