GRIFFIN TEACHER
SPOKE AT MEETING
OF BUTTS EDUCATORS
The BAE met in the Jackson
High School lunchroom on
October 12th. Mrs. Carol
Ridgeway brought a devotional
and President Geraldine
Wright brought several items
of business before the mem
bers.
One was the election of
delegates to the state meeting
in Warner Robins. A motion
was made that the four
officers, Mrs. Geraldine
Wright, president; Arthur
Lawson, vice-president; Mrs.
Lynda Ballard, secretary and
Ruby Solomon, treasurer, be
delegates with Roland Lee and
Joe Lineberger serving as
alternates.
The meeting was turned over
to Darrell Pippin who indicated
that enough interest was shown
by a survey about the
Association of Classroom
Teachers to warrant inviting a
representative to orientate
teachers to this association. He
then introduced Mr. James
Johnston, a Griffin High School
teacher and a representative of
ACT.
Mr. Johnston informed the
BAE members of what ACT is
and what it does. He
emphasized that ACT is not a
union but a group of classroom
teachers working together on
common projects of particular
interest to teachers. Several
questions were asked and it
was announced that another
survey would be conducted to
see if there would be enough
interest shown to form an
Association of Classroom Edu
cators.
