Letter: Memories of Silver Comments re article 108267 ACES Attendance and essays win bicycles By BJ Hagy The price for going to school has gone up since my days in grade school at Knifley Grade Center. "Casey Creek Lodge #536 F.& A.M. presented bicycles..." for attendance for only part of the year, and for essays. Teachers used to give out a Silver Dollar if a student make it through a complete school year without missing a day. It was almost inevitable that many of us would miss at least one day, due to being sick or for some family emergency that would keep us home. I personally wasn't successful until I reached the 8th Grade. Mr. John Dunbar was the 8th Grade teacher when I was there. I didn't much care for Mr. Dunbar so I was determined that he was going to have to pay me a Silver Dollar that year. It was the only school year I made it without missing a day. I earned my dollar. Thanks to the Casey Creek Masonic Lodge our teachers don't have to give up their Silver like they used to. --BJ This story was posted on 2020-01-06 11:53:58
