Teacher dies on last day of school

A retiring teacher of 36 years had a heart attack and died just minutes after she dismissed her students for the last time.

“She had the first heart attack at school,” she said. “She was revived, and en route had another one. She had a history of heart trouble.”

Principal Alice Woodward said students were not on campus.

“The children had not been gone very long — two or three minutes, maybe five,” she said.

Woodward said Mrs. Smith was a fine teacher who loved technology, and was someone on whom teachers and students could depend.
