Ocean Falls Museum - Personal Recollections

My name is Don Little. I was a teacher in Ocean Falls during the years 1954-1958 and have a number of class photos, etc.

I was a young teacher there, very much involved in community athletics (basketball, softball, bowling, skiing) and totally dedicated to the youth of my charge (hiking, school dances & activities, coaching and most everything extra-curricular). Those four years were undoubtedly the highlight time of my four careers (teacher, aviator, realtor and retiree). Many fond memories from those days and of the extraordinary students whom I had the pleasure of knowing and assisting have remained with me over these past fifty years.

So, without further adieu, I'm attaching a few class photos. Do with them what you may.
