Hello Shamrocks! My grandfather, Mr. Mac (MacQuoid) taught science and started the sports program at Chandler. He taught at Chandler from the 1960's to 1992. Mr.... Mac, my Grandfather, is in the ICU, and it's difficult to know if he will recover. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers! If you knew Mr. Mac, please consider joining the fb group linked below, which was created to be a dedicated space to share our memories and photos of Mr. Mac (MacQuoid). Link to group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1615428031959925/permalink/1615434328625962/ I loved getting to Chandler every morning, remembers former Athletic Director and science teacher Clyde MacQuoid of his 30-year career at the school. I walked across the bridge every morning looking at the San Gabriel mountains and the kids playing, and it always put a smile on my face." ~ Clyde MacQuoid from the 2014 Shamrock newsletter
