Memories of Teachers...

  • Mr. Don Kuntz, Assistant Principal
    Where is he now?  Unsure.
    Who could forget Mr Kuntz?  Many times I took spills down the stairs at Stebbins and other schools in Mad River, and my senior year,  I was called to the principals office. Standing there was Mr Kuntz, with a key hanging from his index finger.  I said what's that.  He said well Miss Adkins.  This is an elevator key.  He lifted his other hand with a paper in it, he said this is a hall pass.  You are to leave class 5 minutes early, and use the elevator this year, because I am NOT carrying you down steps this year if you fall.  I laugh now when I think of that story.

  • Mrs. Cooper, Math
    Where is he now?  Still at Stebbins.
    Mrs Cooper, always had a nice word for everyone, and smile.  She taught her students with care.  If you did not understand a math problem, she would sit with you , until you did.  After I graduated High School, I would visit Stebbins often.  Always saying hello to Mrs Cooper, and she always asked how I was.

  • Mrs. Dee Hastler, Athletic Director & Gym
    Where is he now?  Still at Stebbins and hoping to retire soon.
    Many of you remember the time I fell on the track at school,  I still have the stones in my knee as proof.  Anyway, that time I fell, Mrs Haslter took me into the girls locker room and put some of that red spray on my knee.  I swore and quickly covered my mouth as I thought I would really get in trouble then.  She said swear all you want, we need to disinfect this.  Was probably only time I ever swore in front of a teacher in my life.

  • teacher vickie wright
    Mrs. Vicki Wright, Reading/English
    Where is he now?  Still at Stebbins hoping to retire this year, 2007/2008.
    Now a personal friend to me and my family, and she is hoping to retire in 2008.  Very special gal, who has the patients of Jobe.
        -  Cyndamarie Gunn
  • Mr. Rick Sharp, Social Studies
    Where is he now?  Unsure.
    I remember Mr Sharp for being an avid Ohio State fan, and not recognizing Michigan, he called it the "The State up North".  He also flipped his tie over his shoulder alot as a funny give away that we were to relax in his class.  He was really funny, and I also had him as a teacher at Mad River Middle School.  Then called Mad River Jr. High.

    Retired a year or so ago, but was the man who gave me my wrestling name of Eva Destruction I am now called Eva D by people who knew me in the wrestling business and the name has been used by 2 other girls since I left the business in 1991, and was copyrighted by some promoter, but we know I was the original.  He was that type of teacher, he would back you up in your dreams and not make some discouraging comment about it.

  • Mr. Jerry Miller, Government/Student Senate
    Where is he now?  Unsure, but he did retire from Stebbins.
    Mr Young, Interesting man. Hard teacher, also was head of the student senate.  I just remember that crazy hair style he had.  What was with that?  I remember I had him for 2nd period, and we were kind of a crazy bunch. Not naming any names but a student (not me!) fell asleep and Mr Young picked up the garbage can and threw it to the back of the class; to say the least we all jumped and he said "NO sleeping in my class, I am not that boring!" we all sort of snickered.  He was not amused as I can recall.
        -  Cyndamarie Gunn
  • Mr. Klinger, OWE
    Where is he now?  Unsure.
    Football coach and I remember him being a very tall and big man.  Scared the living ..out of me.  Had a kind heart, but man was he tough!
        -  Cyndamarie Gunn

  • Mrs. Bo Clouser, Main office Secretary
    Where is he now?  Still at Stebbins and hoping to retire soon.
    She was always there to help us all, she always had a smile and a friendly face.  I know those of us who took clerical , would remember Mrs Clouser. She is Donnie's mom and Donnie too is part of our class.
        -  Cyndamarie Gunn
  • Mr Ron Young, OWA
    Where is he now?  Unsure.
    Was the guy who got most of us working while in school.  Funny guy, had a huge heart.  Had some awesome times, we went bowling to help us with our math skills,  I think I bowled an 80 haha.. we had loads of fun, was only 8 in that class at the time.  Those were the days!
        -  Cyndamarie Gunn
  • Mr. Bonza, Councilor
    Where is he now?  Unsure.
    I remember Mr Bonza helping me out a lot. Always there with his door open to help the students with issues, and anything really.  Really nice fella.
        -  Cyndamarie Gunn



  • Mr. Watson, Social Studies/History
    Where is he now?  Still at Stebbins.
    Mr Watson lead the L.I.F.T. program for students who were alcohal/drug dependent or had parents who were alcohal/drug dependent.  It was a group of people who would come together during 1 period a week, and talk about their difficulties.  Mr Watson was my social studies teacher in Mad River Middle, and followed me to Stebbins and later became a counciler.  He was awesome.
        -  Cyndamarie Gunn
  • Mr. Eviston, Saturday school
    Where is he now?  Retired and working within Troy City Schools now.
    I remember his barber shop style mustache and handwriting that I had always wished he would teach.  He was fun to have as a teacher, but Saturday school was not fun.
        -  Eva Lewis
  • Ms. Joyce Whiteman
    Where is he now?  Unsure.
    She took a lot of time to get to know. She made everyone in the class cry at least once.  I later realized she represented the difficult bosses we would encounter in our jobs.  She was actually a good friend and would have fought for any of us at any time.  She wanted us to be strong, and not quit or give up, even if it meant appearing to be the wicked witch of the midwest!
        -  Eva Lewis
  • Mrs. Marlea Jordan, Assistant Principal
    Where is he now?  Now an administrator with Dayton Public Schools.
    Has married, new name Marlea Jordan-Gaskins.  She was tough, but fair and was only with us a short time after we had Ms. Frye.  Today, like yesterday, she is a task master and is in charge of Employee Development.
        -  Eva Lewis
  • Mr. Blackburn, Assistant Principal
    Where is he now?  Unsure.
    He always gave me the impression of being Amish.  He taught Biology and had a soft spoken voice.  He was also the lead of Stebbins Bible Study group, a group you would not have found in any other high school in America.  I have always believed this group to have been special.
