Mr Schreiner was my favorite teacher at Mulvane High School. I graduated in 1978. He always had a smile and encouraged his students.

Mr. Schreiner was one of my teachers at Mulvane High. He was friendly, smiled as he passed you and enjoyed teaching.
I´m thankful for the years I knew him in the `50´s,
