Looking back --  the pictures of these people, at our teachers, in our last yearbook...these are mostly pictures of people much younger than we are today, but they were grown ups, then, and we had vast perceptual and experiential differences...teachers and students, and we did not pay them, the teachers or the differences, enough attention.  
Thank you, now...all of you who taught us and took such good care of us while we were at Fairview.

Coach Bob Foster died in January 2010.  A large ceremony was held in Boulder in honor of his life, attended by a great number of people whose lives he had affected over many years of coaching and teaching at Fairview and Boulder High Schools.  

We would like to find as many teachers, or find out about them, as we can. 
We include  counselors and cooks, janitors and principals among our teachers...send information to theresa@TheresaBlanding.com
