l ia! MrSfe This year Dana Hills hired five new teachers: Ms. Blake of the Special Educa- tion department; Mr. Chapman, an American history teacher and baseball coach; Mr. Sulli- van, a science teacher and water polo coach; Ms. Warman, an English teach- er, speech and debate teacher and pageantry corps advisor; and Ms. Fowler, an ESL teacher. Ms. Blake found her responsibilities as a special ed. teacher overwhelming, but not insurmountable. She taught school in Long Beach and Redlands prior to coming to Dana Hills. Mr. Chapman, rookie history teacher, voiced his philosophy of teaching: If I can make kids want to come to class because it ' s fun, I can teach them any- thing. 1 believe in being a leader in- stead of a manager. Mr. Chapman coached J.V. baseball. A face appeared this year that made many ' 81 teachers quail. After a mere eight years, Mike Sullivan returned. only this time as a science teacher. He also served as a water polo coach and senior class advisor. Ms. Warman is not new to the teaching profession, having taught for over ten years. She arrived at Dana Hills sec- ond semester and taught freshman and sophomore English, speech and de- bate, and pageantry corps. Happiest when she is in the classroom situa- tion, she professed to be excited with being at Dana Hills. When Ms. Fowler first arrived on cam- pus, she was shocked by the class sizes and the inability of the school district to help, She advises her ESL students to read, and she accepts them for their similarities rather than their differences, Ms. Fowler also lived in Brazil for three years, -s.b. 1.
