Jericho! In the '70s, that 6th grade open classroom at Fausey, for 4 classes of kids, was an experiment, but Mr. Lyman and the other 3 teachers made it work, wonderfully, with cohesion, dedication, enthusiasm, and forward thinking. It really prepared us all for the next step. Best classroom experience I ever had at that level. Just a wonderful teacher that kept everything in the proper perspective. RIP.

I remember Fred as a dedicated and caring teacher. He and the sixth grade staff at Fausey were way ahead of the curve with their team teaching and open classroom. A very advanced program for the early 70´s. A great sense of humor as well.
