This book is dedicated to Mrs. Johnnie PoUy, "'bo dedicated thirty-nine years of her life to education and to the youth of Waynestille High

bool.

Johnnie PoUy is a remarkable woman - gentle, soft-spoken, caring, but firm, trong, r ilient. he · gifted in mathematical intelligence but in other intelligences as "'eU: an artist herself, a connoisseur of great books, good music, old moties; a loter of children, of tradition, of nature. be bas a wonderful sense of humor; perhaps along "'ith the breadb of her interests enabled her not merely to endure but to pretail for thirt)-nine ears in education.

ilia:'

Johnnie know herself. And that is the highest of arts. Knowing her ubject matter and what be bad as a person to gite to her tudents, be did not try to ume a counterfeit face or use teaching methods unbecoming to her tyle or irreletant to her goals. In a prot: ion that can be tr ful, confusing, frustrating, eten tengeful at times, be managed to use good judgment and keep the cool tenor of her ways. When the public clamored for bowy trends, be weighed and considered before embracing innotations. When others competed for merit pay and recognition, be recognized her tudents, keeping a low profile and a bumble pirit. Her tudents "'ere her accolades. A one former tudent, wife of a Waynestille graduate and parent of three children wbo graduated from Waynestille, said, be was a quiet, behind-the-scenes person "'bo did her job and "'ent UIUIOticed ... To bate our kids taught by people wbo taught us gites us a feeling of completeness, of roots, of tradition" (Peggie Oark, class of '65). That Johnnie's "echoes roU from souJ to souJ and grow foreter and foreter" is "'onderfulJy illustrated by comments of tudents "'bose lit be touched:

"One of the most dedicated, intelligent teachers I bate bad in all my years, including coUege. I thought be knew eterything" (Dennis Bunnell, class of '68)." be "'as "'eet and understanding" ( usan Hough, class of '78). be "'as, obtiously, influential. I went into math education. I enjoyed her classes. be definitely prepared me for coUege" (KeUy Miltenberger Maloney, class of '85). " be was a positite role mode~ being a woman in math. be is one of the main reasons for my being a math teacher" (CbameUe Oark, cl of '92). Johnnie was a paragon of the tability, continuity, honesty, reason, and good sense that "'e must bold onto in order to unite as an educational community and to maintain our integrity as educators and as human beings. May we as teachers whose lit Johnnie also touched rededicate oursehes to the great, aJway unfmisbed "'ork of education.
