Sad to report the news that Greg Switzer has passed.

I don’t know how long Mr. Switzer was at Wayne, but I remember him from the early 70s. If you had him for teacher on the 90s or 2000s, post a comment.
This photo was from the 75 yearbook.

Found this in the archives – the Class of 2004 trip to Washington, DC in April 2000. It was in a VHS video format, and is just still pictures with a music background audio track. The quality was pretty poor to begin with, and time hasn’t helped much. But better than nothing, so I used a video capture device to transfer to mp4 format. The original photos are probably who knows where, but they would be much better quality. The choice to put these on VHS was interesting, but I suppose in the year 2000, almost everyone had a VHS player and some smaller number of families had a PC with a CD-ROM player.
A link has been put on the Video Links page, but here is the video / link:

Just read that Grace Vanderlee had passed, at age 100. She taught 1st grade at Wayne for many years, in Ontario Elementary and Ontario Primary after it was built in 1962. I believe she ended up being the principal at Ontario Primary before she retired.
