Looking Toward New Horizons Toward New Horizons was the challenging motto for the members of this F.H.A. chapter. It stated that their contributions to society, to home, and to community life today would influence the kind of homes that they would have in the future. They also learned that the family life of members would influence their community, their employment, and everything around them. F.H.A. sponsored many activities. The organization held the first dance at Nova, a cookbook sale, a powder puff football game, and Thanksgiv- ing baskets to name a few. The Thanksgiving baskets were made up by homeroom classes at Nova and were given to the families of Nova students. Mrs. Virginia Erickson, the advisor of this F.H.A. chapter, was very proud of their efforts saying, I am very proud of the efforts of Nova F.H.A. in their community service projects. Their good attitude and en- thusiasm make them a great group to work with as they learn skills for leadership, citizenship, individual family living, and the workplace. 1. Gladys Cocking.

Striving For A Better Future The Future Farmers of America or- ganization, FFA, was a club where students enrolled in a vocational ag- ricultural class could learn to devel- op leadership skills and how to coop- erate or work as a group. FFA was about 90 members strong. FFA competed in Field Day at Shasta College. They also competed in project, sectional, and state com- petitions. To earn money for their activities, FFA sponsored a dance and held a plant sale at Nova and the other high schools. The officers of FFA were President- Brian Beck, Vice-President-Suzanna Walton, Secretary-Dale Burton, Treasurer-Glenn Brushett. Report- er-Donna Coffey, and Sentinel-Dean Maylott. Mr. Peter Houtman, who has taught at Nova for two years, was the instructor of FFA. This was his twelfth year that he was involved with this organization. He said, They are an excellent group of young people who are willing to learn. Brian Beck, the President of FFA, added, FFA is really fun be- cause you get to go on trips, take an animal to the fair, and learn all sorts of things. They were an enthusiastic group that Strived for a Better Fu- ture. 3VA - ■ ■ ;EH ECU 1. Officers of FFA. Donna Coffey-Reporter. Suzanna Walton-Vice-President. Brian Beck-President.
