        <description>Here are some funny/interesting tidbits from Monday night&#039;s Kern High School District meeting you won&#039;t see in the paper:

Jim Burke Education Foundation Teacher of the Year Michael McQuerrey of Liberty High said a few words to the trustees:

McQuerrey (a music instructor) congratulated district Assistant Superintendent of Personnel Bill Jones for his &amp;quot;excellent baritone&amp;quot; voice. Apparently, he knows this from a church choir. He also remembered trustee Joel Heinrichs as student body president at his high school and for being an &amp;quot;ace journalist&amp;quot; in high school. Who knew?

&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; 
Joel Heinrichs

 	 		 			  				 

On a more serious note, McQuerry (we ran a story about the award he won April 26) implored trustees to continue to support classes that go &amp;quot;beyond testing.&amp;quot; 

&amp;quot;What I don&#039;t want to do is leave the profession in worse shape than I found it,&amp;quot; McQuerrey said.</description>
