.str ry teacher hired The wine country of California, Nappa Valley, is where Mr. Richard Simpson, history teacher, was born and raised. Mr. Simpson said he went to the University of Califor- nia at Berkley. He moved to Sonora, Calif. and taught at Summerville High School for eight years. Mr. Simpson and his wife moved here in August and he began teaching the third week of school. He said it was a disadvantage to get students who were pulled out of their classes and put into new ones. He also feels having to move from room to room each day is a disadvantage, because he has to adjust his teaching techniques. Mr. Simpson said he would rate his job as a seven on a scale often because he has to adjust to the large school.
