Miss Hart, daiighter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Hart of Clin ton. teaches • first grade in the Rawls Byrd elementary school. A graduate of Agnes Scott College, with a master’s degree in education from the University of North Carolina, she is at present in her fourth year of teaching in the Vir ginia school system. According to the Williams burg paper, Miss Hart is con sidered one of the best first grade teachers in the school system. The interview set forth some of her views, in cluding her opinion that ac cepting each child as an in dividual is one of the most impoortant aspects of teach ing. “A teacher must accept each child at whatever his level of ability and general development,” Miss Hart was quoted as saying, pointing out that she believes that the first grade is one of the most im portant. “Here the founda tion is set for learning habits, behavior habits, social ad justments, and it is a firm foundation.” The interview also stated that Miss Hart is harder on herself than on the children, exacting to the best of her ability service in the profes sion which she describes as “tremendously challenging, a somewhat frightening respon sibility.” issssa^s Miss Hart also works as a hostess for Colonial Williams burg during the summer months, a position, which, in her opinion, “is a good bal ance between children and adults.” Dewitt T.
