LYNDIA GRAHAM LAYTON Its nice to be honored and recognized by your peers but perhaps there is no greater honor given to a teacher than the acclaim of her students. That special thing happened to LaRae Kimber as she was named the Most Influential Teacher at Layton High. She was selected for that honor by Weber State College after a poll was conducted of four years of Layton High graduates. The students gave her name, most often as the teacher who had most influenced them. Mrs. Kimber was raised in southern Idaho and earned her bachelors degree at Brigham Young University in Provo. She later earned a masters degree from the University of Utah. She said when she was considering a career she wasnt sure teaching was what she wanted to do but after working with some young people in a nonteaching situation she realized she did want to be a teacher. She taught for some time early in her career and then stopped for 13 years to raise her children. She now lives in Farming-to- n with her husband, Russ. As her children grew, she returned to teaching. Mrs. Kimber has taught English at Layton High since it opened. During those years she has touched thousands of lives.

I expect respect and I need to respect them. Her attitude must have agreed with the students who have passed beyond her classroom. Another student polled said, Mrs. Kimber was the most enthusiastic, caring and fun teacher I ever had. She had enough respect and love for her students that she would push them to do their best. A third student wrote, She is - o yz if' 'HI '.if" cause she enjoys the maturity level of the students and feels she can go in depth with them as she teaches. The depth of her influence has also been felt by her students.

She encouraged me to take a chance even though failure was a possibility, the student said. Much can be learned from failure as well as success.
