Looking back, I probably wouldn’t have been surprised if teachers like Gauthier, Wagner, and Blackwell retired shortly after I left. They seemed to be getting there in age at the time.

I don't know what year you graduated (I did in 2010), but Blackwell retired after my 7th grade year (2008-09) and Gauthier basically had to unretire to teach us 8th grade science part-time since they were so short on staff. Both were great teachers. Gauthier did all she could to catch us up on material we didn't get in previous grades.
I never had Wagner. Think he left or retired when I was in like 5th grade. Heard great things about him, though.
