I had Mr. Cash for AP Biology for my senior year in 1979-1980. While the class was tough, it was great preparation for me for college. I appreciate Mr. Cash giving us seniors an early insight into what kind of work would be required in college.

The school was new and unfinished in 1969-70 as were the science labs. Mr Cash somehow still thrived in the environment, through Fruit fly breakouts and our senior class antics. I hopre I have lived up the the challenges life would present that he frankly spoke of to his classes. In my eyes Robert Cash did. I stll quote from the left handed dictionary he would occasionally read from to his students. Prostitute - a busy body

I had Mr. Cash for 9th-grade Biology. I count him among one of my favorite teachers, and fondly remember him. He asked me if he could keep one of my projects as an information tool and example to show other classes. Also remember the micro-bus he drove. Very happy memories of his classes, although my dissection partner, Eleanor, briefly fainted when we were dissecting a flatworm. Mr. Cash really seemed to enjoy the students and teaching.
Boris Kortiak (Kortiak) (1978)
I remember Mr. Cash as calm and composed in class. I always enjoyed the classes and still retain much of what he taught.
Thank you

Mr Cash brought a sense of humor and fun to an advanced biology class that was always challenging from grasshopper glands to fetal pigs and animal and plant taxonomies . His teaching stance was always postitive and friendly! A good guy!!!
