'Big Four' alumni reflections

"We remember so vividly the hallowed halls and revered teachers," reads a letter to teachers from the Paisley High School class of 1966 for their 50th reunion. Dothula Baron and her classmates wanted everyone to know how special their time at Paisley was, which is the same sentiment you get from alumni at the other schools in the Big Four: Anderson, Atkins, and Carver. In these videos, alumni reflect on the educators who shaped them. The videos feature the following alumni:

• Dothula Baron, Paisley class of 1966

• Arthur Dark, Carver class of 1964

• James E. Gist, Atkins class of 1958

• Elwillie Byrd Jarrett, Carver class of 1965

• Wayne Ledbetter, Anderson class of 1970

• Norman Williams, Anderson class of 1967
