Beerbaum in St. Louis, Missouri. She attended college at Mac Murray College, Central Methodist, Missouri University, Central Missouri State University, University of Hawaii, and Wake Forest earning a Bachelor of Arts in Education. Asked why she chose teaching as a profession she said, ?My dad paid for my education. His directions were to find a job you can support yourself doing it. It was teaching. I would do it all over again. I loved the students.? She taught at Chrisman from 1956-1967. She got married in 1966 to Gene Fisher. She returned in 1976 and taught till she retired in 1992. She taught English and English Literature. She was also the PEP Club Sponsor for 8 years from 1959-1967. She said the significant school events were riding the Pep Club bus for 8 years and working with the cheerleader with her having no athletic talent (she said that herself). The cheerleaders were wonderful. She was also the NHS (National Honor Society) Sponsor. She enjoyed directions the plays ?Life with Father? and ?Inherit the Wind?. She also sponsored Scholars Bowl and had winning teams! She enjoyed teaching with many successful students. ?Each student is successful in his/her own way. Each one is a person with his/her own story to tell. We all do, I hope, the best we can in life.? Yes, she said that she met President Truman walking jauntily up the street in the morning with cane in hand and hat on his head headed for the Independence Square or home. He smiled and spoke and she was in awe. She has attended the Class of 1956 50th Class Reunion in 2006. Asked how teaching has changed. She said it was computers in the classrooms but students, she found, were much the same. She likes retirement just fine. She works at her church directing the church?s choir and 9 country churches choir. She enjoys giving concerts and plays and traveling (mostly to Williamsburg, VA. Music has turned into her main passion now. She also likes reading but not doing housework. Girls, remember those bus trips going to and from ball games. We froze or melted at those games. Remember getting to the Truman Library or Woodland Cemetery and starting the signing of the school song ending at 24 Highway and Noland. Written by a former pep club member 1965-1967. Robie Mathews ----- Margaret Meredith ----- ----- Borrowed from: http://www.stamnet.org/meredith.htm ----- "Georgia Brady of Blue Springs South High School acknowledges the incredible abilities of Ms. Meredith. Margaret Meredith coached forensics for William Chrisman High School in Independence from the late 1940's to 1975. The Chrisman chapter was established in 1932 as Chapter 136. This was one year before the earliest establishment of STAM. Miss Meredith received a BSE in English and Business from SMSU and her Master's in Speech and Drama at Missouri University. Her first teaching positions were at Roscoe and Humansville, Missouri, where she taught business courses and coached women's basketball. Later, she taught in Summersville and West Plains. In 1945, she began a 31 year career coaching an incredible program in forensics at William Chrisman High School in Independence. In 1999, the Little Theatre in the school became the Margaret Meredith Little Theatre. The chapter at William Chrisman earned the National Trophy (Tau Kappa Alpha) in 1956, when she was also named Coach of the Year. Leading chapter was awarded to Chapter #136 five times between 1947 and 1951. Ms. Meredith served as district chairman five times, and her school received the Sweepstakes Trophy at the District Tournament eleven times. She is in the NFL Hall of Fame in Ripon, Wisconsin. 32 of Ms. Meredith's students competed in over 300 rounds at the national tournament. Students competed at the National Tournament 28 of the 31 years she coached at William Chrisman. Two of her students received first place in the nation. Margaret was also an avid bridge player, community and church volunteer, and a world traveler. She remained in her home on Delaware Street in Independence till just prior to her death in 2001. She was proud of the fact that Harry Truman referred to her as the second Margaret on Delaware. Ms. Margaret Meredith established a nearly 40 year coaching record at William Chrisman which may never be equaled in Missouri." ----- Chrisman Hall of Fame ----- Dan Ogle has taken the necessary steps to once again have an active Chrisman Hall of Fame. Many thanks go to Dan Ogle. ----- Sports Schedules ----- Boys Varsity Basketball: Friday 1/21 7:00PM vs. Van Horn High School Tuesday 1/25 7:00PM vs. Raytown South High School Friday 1/28 7:00PM vs. Bonner Springs High School Tuesday 2/1 7:00PM @ Winnetonka High School Friday 2/4 7:00PM vs. Fort Osage High School Friday 2/11 7:00PM vs. Belton High School Tuesday 2/15 7:00PM vs. Raytown High School Friday 2/18 7:00PM @ Raytown South High School Monday 2/21 TBA @ Districts Tuesday 2/22 TBA @ Districts Tuesday 2/22 TBA @ Districts Wednesday 2/23 TBA @ Districts Thursday 2/24 TBA @ Districts Friday 2/25 TBA @ Districts Girls Varsity Basketball Monday 1/17 TBA @ Truman Varsity Tournament Tuesday 1/18 TBA @ Truman Varsity Tournament Wednesday 1/19 TBA @ Truman Varsity Tournament Thursday 1/20 TBA @ Truman Varsity Tournament Friday 1/21 TBA @ Truman Varsity Tournament Saturday 1/22 TBA @ Truman Varsity Tournament Monday 1/24 7:00PM vs. Fort Osage High School Thursday 1/27 7:00PM vs. Raytown High School Monday 1/31 7:00PM @ Staley High School Thursday 2/3 7:00PM vs. Winnetonka High School Monday 2/7 7:00PM @ Raytown South High School Thursday 2/10 7:00PM vs. Belton High School Monday 2/14 7:00PM vs. Liberty High School Thursday 2/17 7:00PM @ Fort Osage High School Monday 2/21 TBA @ Districts Wednesday 2/23 TBA @ Districts Thursday 2/24 TBA @ Districts Friday 2/25 TBA @ Districts -------------------------------------- Girls Varsity Soccer Tuesday 3/22 5:00PM vs. Oak Park High School Thursday 3/24 5:00PM vs. Ruskin High School Thursday 3/31 5:00PM vs. Raytown High School Tuesday 4/5 5:00PM @ Winnetonka High School Thursday 4/7 5:00PM @ North Kansas City High School Tuesday 4/12 5:00PM @ Raytown South High School Thursday 4/14 5:00PM vs. Fort Osage High School Friday 4/15 5:00PM @ Park Hill South High School Tuesday 4/19 5:00PM @ Belton High School Tuesday 4/26 5:00PM @ Van Horn High School Thursday 4/28 5:00PM vs. Winnetonka High School Monday 5/2 5:00PM @ Raytown High School Tuesday 5/3 5:00PM vs. Truman High School Thursday 5/5 5:00PM vs. Raytown South High School Monday 5/9 5:00PM vs. Park Hill South High School Tuesday 5/10 5:00PM @ Fort Osage High School Thursday 5/12 5:00PM vs. Belton High School --------------------------------------------- Girls Varsity Swimming Wednesday 1/19 4:00PM vs. Raytown/Kearney Thursday 1/20 4:00PM vs. KC Invitational Friday 1/21 4:00PM vs. KC Invitational Saturday 1/22 10:00AM vs. KC Invitational Thursday 1/27 4:00PM vs. Lee's Summit High School Friday 2/4 4:00PM @ Conference Saturday 2/5 10:00AM @ Conference Friday 2/18 TBA @ State/St. Peters Saturday 2/19 TBA @ State/ St. Peter ----------------------------------------------------- Boys Varsity Tennis Tuesday 3/22 4:00PM vs. Grandview Senior High School Wednesday 3/23 4:00PM @ Truman High School Thursday 3/24 4:00PM vs. Ruskin High School Tuesday 3/29 4:00PM vs. Platte County R-3 High School Thursday 3/31 4:00PM vs. Belton High School Tuesday 4/5 4:00PM @ Fort Osage High School Thursday 4/7 4:00PM vs. Park Hill South High School Monday 4/11 9:00AM @ Ruskin Varsity Tourney Tuesday 4/12 4:00PM @ Winnetonka High School Saturday 4/16 9:00AM @ Truman Varsity Tourney Tuesday 4/19 4:00PM @ Belton High School Tuesday 4/26 4:00PM @ Park Hill South High School Wednesday 4/27 9:00AM @ Ex.

They can be big or small. Some are easier than others to accomplish. Oftentimes, we may not be sure where or how to start. THCF connects your dreams with the dreams of others to make a real difference in our communities. This past year was another stellar example of this. With the support of our donors, volunteers, Board and Advisory Boards, we grew our total assets by 19% and the overall THCF investment portfolio earned 17.5%, enabling us to fund thousands of dollars in grants and scholarships. Total grants from all funds, including donor advised funds, scholarships and our annual community grants process totaled $3.5 million. We are grateful for those who, through thoughtful planning, have made provisions in their estates to benefit the community. Thanks to 95 Heartland Legacy Society members who, through their estate plans, have left a lasting legacy of philanthropy that will benefit future generations. Last year, $174,320 was awarded from 88 scholarships to area students. Scholarships are available for community high school seniors, undergraduate students and graduate students pursuing a higher education degree, including technical schools.

    LINC Commission Meeting November 16, 2015 The One Sight ‘Vision Van’ provided free eye examinations and eyeglasses to students in need. Over 250 students in the Kansas City Public Schools, North Kansas City and Independence School Districts received vision services. One Sight is a worldwide organization that provides access to quality vision care. Local Investment Commission (LINC) Vision Our Shared Vision A caring community that builds on its strengths to provide meaningful opportunities for children, families and individuals to achieve self-sufficiency, attain their highest potential, and contribute to the public good. Our Mission To provide leadership and influence to engage the Kansas City Community in creating the best service delivery system to support and strengthen children, families and individuals, holding that system accountable, and changing public attitudes towards the system. Our Guiding Principles 1. COMPREHENSIVENESS: Provide ready access to a full array of effective services. 2. PREVENTION: Emphasize “front-end” services that enhance development and prevent problems, rather than “back-end” crisis intervention. 3. OUTCOMES: Measure system performance by improved outcomes for children and families, not simply by the number and kind of services delivered. 4. INTENSITY: Offering services to the needed degree and in the appropriate time. 5. PARTICIPANT INVOLVEMENT: Use the needs, concerns, and opinions of individuals who use the service delivery system to drive improvements in the operation of the system. 6. NEIGHBORHOODS: Decentralize services to the places where people live, wherever appropriate, and utilize services to strengthen neighborhood capacity. 7. FLEXIBILITY AND RESPONSIVENESS: Create a delivery system, including programs and reimbursement mechanisms, that are sufficiently flexible and adaptable to respond to the full spectrum of child, family and individual needs.
