Miss Kreger and Mrs Ells never taught home ec. at the same time. Miss Kreger
retired after the 1965-1966 school year, and Mrs Ells Started in the fall of
1968. Mrs Brewer was in there between Miss Kreger and Mrs Ells. And come to
think of it she may have been there for only a year.

No, I'm sure it was Jessie who also did chair caning. I could be wrong
though. It won't be the first time that I've been known to be wrong lol
hahahaha. But that's okay. Somebody taught it, that's for sure. Lol. I
wasn't in the class, so I don't know, but hey I tried hahahaha.
I know Mrs. Kreiger and Mrs. Ells taught homeec and I liked them both.They
were both super nice to me. I really loved Mrs. Kreiger though. She was the
best.

Jesse taught percussion but not band.  I don't recall him teaching chair
caning; he was piano tuning instructor.

I think you're thinking of Mr. R Rosnowski, something like that spelling.
