You have received a message from another user!

From: Zap

Subject: PUH-LEEZ

Message: I repeat myself..."Home-schooling" does not equate to being "self-taught" because society in the days of Di Vinci, etc. lacked the means to educate the masses...I already told you that. Every person on that list was either taught by a private tutor because the family was rich enough to afford one or were self-taught because they had the motivation and drive to get out of the poor house their family was in and public schooling was not available. C'mon...you can't be that gullible.

  • Sandra L. Rougvie – Social Studies Superstar Passes

    Mrs. Rougvie – NQHS Social Studies & Sports fan passed away just before Christmas. Mrs. Rougvie, age 66, died suddenly, December 21, 2010, following a recent series of medical complications.

    We were happy to see Mrs. R last spring at Bill Willoughby’s memorial service. As always she was happy & energetic – a great way to be remembered.

    She is survived by her aunt and uncle, Dolly and Bert Nogler of Quincy, and the Nogler, Vignoni and DeGrassie cousins. She was loved and will be missed by many dear friends. A graduate of Suffolk University, Sandra spent 32 years as a Social Studies teacher for the Quincy Public Schools, for the most part teaching U.S. History at her alma mater North Quincy High School. At North, she coached the girls basketball team, was advisor to the docent program at the MFA, and mentored many student teachers who were inspired by her engaging teaching methods and the atmosphere of mutual respect so evident in her classroom. Sandra’s interests were extensive and varied. She had skied, sailed, and played tennis and was currently developing her golf game. She loved watching sports, and was legendary for her knowledge of college and professional sports teams and her insights into the intricacies of the games. Movies were another passion. Sandra prided herself on seeing movies as soon as they were released and in spite of her intolerance for slow-moving films, she was the go-to movie critic among her friends. Sandra’s life-long interest in travel began after college graduation with a cross country camping trip sharing a pup tent with a high school friend. She bicycled and camped in Scandinavia, sailed in the Caribbean, and visited numerous countries in Europe as well as Mexico, Guatemala, Thailand and Egypt. She safaried in Africa two years ago and most recently completed her second barge trip in France with a group of college friends. Closer to home she loved summers at the beach, be it occasional weeks on Cape Cod or daily trips to Nantasket where she seemed to know everyone sitting within a 100 foot radius. Affectionately called the Windex Queen, Sandra was known for her zest for cleaning everything in sight, her fantastic skills in the kitchen, and her spirited political discussions. She will be remembered fondly for her sense of humor, her curiosity, and for the warmth that was felt by all who crossed her path.
