June 6, 1975

After 45 years of teaching, Julia Thomson has retired to a farm near Lathrop. Her career began in rural schools in Atchison County. She also taught in Nodaway and Holt Counties before coming to Platte City where she taught 24 years. She was honored by the fourth grade classes on May 16 with a surprise program and was presented a watch, dogwood tree and many individual gifts. A number of former students and teaching associates were present.
