This picture was taken around 1911, the year I started teaching school at age 16.
Visit with Miss Fay Armstrong, a marionette of a school teacher who taught in Chandler Oklahoma from 1911 to 1961. Miss Fay used a marionette theater in her classroom and so has been immortalized in a marionette theater which specialized in plays about Oklahoma history. She will answer questions about puppets, her career and Oklahoma history. Her specialty is Lincoln County history, but thanks to her current play for the Oklahoma Centennial she is also well versed in state history.

About Me
- Miss Fay
- From 1911 until 1961 I was a very strict teacher and my students remember my ruler along with my marionettes. However, all of these years later many of them are still thankful for the lessons they learned in my class. If I was a teacher today I would not use my ruler to punish, but I would surely continue to put art in the center of my teaching methods.
