Thanks for the se! Principal, Mr. I. Wylie French believes involvement with school activities by stuc ents, parents, and taculty is the best method tor producing and maintain- ing a successful student body. New Super! Dr. Melvin, Virginia BeaAch's new school superintendent, answers a question at a press conference. The press conference was held in December for the schools' jour- nalism teachers and student newspaper editors. ,le- X, -Q -I 'Q A Year to Liste Virginia Beach schools welcomed Dr. lames T. Melvin this year as the new superintendent. He arrived from Fort Meyers, Florida and faced immediately the challenge of dealing with a school system two times the size of the one he left behind. He was not in- timidated and took charge with open ears. Dr. Melvin dedicated his first year to learning about the needs and desires of everyone in- volved in the system. He visited every school and spoke not only with the administration but lac ulty and students as well. Receiving feedback was Dr. Melvin's main concern for his first year. He held two press conferences with the schools' journalism 'l 138 Faculty teachers and student newspaper editors to discover how they felt about their schools. He compiled a list of recommendations, which he distributed to school employees. Dr. Mel- vin announced his plans at the Convocation held before the school year began. He wants to be involved with the faculty and is willing to listen to any request. Dr. Melvin remarked at the first press con- ference, I like the challenge of working in a bigger and growing area. With a new junior high opening in 1988 and a new high school scheduled to open in I 989, the new superintendent will be facing growth and change from here on out! l I i i l l sl -171 Q21 1. p LJ' Assistant Principals: Dr. Edith Eidson, Mr. G. Ray Smith, Mr. Ralph Sykes and Mr. Wayne Sykes.

What other profession allows you to interact with over one hundred individuals a day? Though the teachers joked, that they chose the job in order to have their summers free and for the easy hours, these educators had very noble reasons in founding their careers. It would probably surprise the students a great deal to know, that they were the number one answer to the question, What do you like most about teaching? Ms. 'I -CIO Faculty Williams enjoyed, just being a small part in influencing future generations. Being around young people , tMrs. Pat Curtis-Liquel, so much vitality and potential , tivtrs. Sue Morrisi, that no day is the same , lMs. Sherri Fordi, were other responses to the same questions. What I like most is Hthe daily give and take with students , replied Mr. David Long. This exchange between teacher and student was very un- predictable. The teachers never knew when a lesson plan was goingto turn into a class discus- sion of contemporary issues and problems. When these talks came up, the students often felt successful in getting the teacher off the subject, but what they did not realize was that teachers enjoyed the con- versations too. Our teachers took these opportunities to learn about their students, to find out how to relate the subject matter to students. Class time allowed for the in- teraction with stimulating people and challenging ideas , said Mrs. loann Tillberg. Mr. Mark Forget viewed every class as the opportunity to affect young people in a beneficial way . The students should never have doubted for a second, that their teachers don't like what they do for a living. Every day was different. Every year was different. They were not always great, but almost every teacher would admit without hesita- tion, l love teaching . l i I I i
