By Richard Bammer/RBammer@TheReporter.com

Sitting in room 103 at Vacaville High School last week, Larry Baker faced a stack of essay/multiple-choice finals, all them needing a good, careful read and a grade. The essays, about how the 1950s and ’60s civil rights movement changed American society, would take more time, of course, but it would be time well spent, closing out a 36-year career in Vacaville public schools, most recently as an 11th-grade U.S. history teacher.

“It’s kept me busy,” said Baker, a widely known and well-liked athletic coach of, through the years, football, track, girls and boys basketball and girls golf.
