As a member of the 1st class of Bodine HS of International Affairs, we were her "babies". She treated us with love and respect with a stern parental hand, if need be. I loved my experience at Bodine, and I loved Dr. Waiters as our principal. She was a role model in more ways than one. Rest well Queen.

I was fortunate enough to be a student of Dr. Waiters at Bodine. Class of 1991. I have nothing but good memories of my interactions with her and her words of encouragement to me and my family. She improved many lives with her works and her spirit.

Dr Waiters was a wonderful principal and leader of our new school, the High School for International Affairs. It was later named the Wm Bodine HS for Intl Affairs. She had high expectations for all of her students, and we appreciated it. Michelle Wilson Ross Bodine, Class of 87
