"Life is like a pathway of freshly fallen snow. Be careful how you tread it, for every mark will show.
Love, Laura Harris"

"Labor for learning before you grow old. Learning is better than silver or gold. Silver or gold may vanish away, But a good education will never decay. With love, Mrs. Harris"

MCS teacher, retired, Hank Stafford wrote, "Laura Harris was an institution. I often finished JV basketball practice about 6 PM. It was dark outside and she was still in her classroom. Glad I knew her."
