Nova ' s Top Four This school is run by four very im- portant men: Dr. Joseph Appel, Su- perintendent of the Shasta Union High School District; Mr. Don Demsher, Principal; Mr. John Bun- ton, Vice-Principal; and Mr. Mike Martin, Dean of Students and Head Counselor. Dr. Appel doesn ' t work at Nova but at the district office. He is the super- visor of all five of the high schools in the Shasta Union High School Dis- trict. The five schools are Nova High School, Shasta High School, Central Valley High School, Enterprise High School, and Pioneer High School. Mr. Demsher is the principal of Nova. He is responsible for deciding what classes will be available each year and what the requirements are to be able to take each class. He su- pervises all of the teachers and other staff. Mr. Bunton assists Mr. Demsher with all of his responsibilities, along with being in charge of discipline. He tries to stop problems before they start. Mr. Martin is the Head Counselor and Dean of Students. He assists Mr. Bunton with discipline. He also has some activities of his own, such as Leadership Day. This is Mr. Martin ' s first year at Nova. We at Nova should be very grateful that we have such a wonderful ad- ministration who cares about what happens to the students. 98 Administration

STAFF «| !» (»« «»- 7 £e 70 ve 0£ Nova ' s staff is a wonderful group of people. It is not only the teachers, but also the maintenance crew, cafeteria workers, counselors, and the office staff all working to- gether, that help make Nova the wonderful school that it The school could not function without the staff. Just imagine what it would be like if all the teachers decided to stay home one day. All of the students would be running wild in the halls and things would be completely out of control. If we didn ' t have the cafeteria and office staff, there would be no food and the phones would be ringing with no one to answer them. The staff at Nova has taught us many things. We have learned how to build self-confidence and how to deal with adults. The teachers taught us the things that they were required to and also many lessons about life through stories about their experiences when they were our age and older. We would like to thank all of Nova ' s staff for helping us to have such a great year. 1. Mrs. Phyllis Skelly helps Aaron Dean study for a Spanish quiz. 2.
