Miss Beverly Thompson brings Diana Braden more work. taff Welcomes new faces As many of us walked about the halls on the first day of school, many new faces were seen among the faculty. Since many teachers retired or left, eighteen new teach- ers were added. Mrs. Georgia Russell and Mrs. Naomi Snowball, Englishg Mrs. Ioesphine Denovchek, Businessg and Mr. Dean Thomas, Weldingp are sorely missed by staff members as Well as by students. These teachers were here since the school opened and became an essen- tial part of it. The students who had these teachers will not forget the excellent training that they received from them. These teachers not only saw the many changes that Reserve went through, but also the numerous differ- ences among students from 1967 to 1979-1980. Mrs. Cheri Daugherty was hired in English, Mr. Rich- ard Mercer was the replacement for Mr. Thomas, and Mrs. Denovchek was replaced by Miss Beverly Thomp- son. Students looked forward to having these teachers, because they knew that they had many innovated ideas. Stepping into Mr. Peckyno's position as Assistant Prin- cipal was Mr. Iohn Lawhorn. Mr. Lawhorn could be seen wandering the halls to see that all students were in their classes and that the faculty was at their respective Ad- ministrative Assignments. He found that being Assistant Principal as well as Head Basketball Coach was more time consuming than being a Social Studies teacher. The retiring of old staff members, the promotion of others and the hiring of new ones all added to a TURN- ING POINT here at Reserve. 152lStaff Divider

New board tackles probl m The 1979-80 school year was a very confusing and controversial one for the Warren City Schools and Reserve. The three new board mem- bers were elected on platforms of anti-busing, budget cutting and back to basics . Mr. Anthony Berarducci resigned as superinten- dent and then became seriously ill. Mr. John Hulan was appointed act- ing superintendent. Mr. Robert Warren City Board of Education-Willard T. Rubin, Raymond I. Tesner, Catherine O. Swan, Presidentg Mary M. Milheim. Not pic- tured: Henry I. Angelo, Vice President, Robert L. Pegues Ir. Superintendent, Warren City Schools Pegues, former superintendent of Youngstown City Schools was hired as superintendent by the board and took over his duties in Ianuary. At Reserve, Mr. Nick Ptinii was promoted to Director of Personel in August of 1979 and Mr. Iohn Peckyno was appointed principal. Although Mr. Peckyno was familiar with Reserve, the turnover was hec- tic as he had to contend with all the confusion and problems of opening a new school year. Mr. Peckyno be- came ill in the late fall and did not resume his duties until just before Christmas. Reserve underwent many changes under his direction. The impact of this year with all its problems has yet to be felt in the community. 154!Board of Education nM Mrs. Swan checks the budget carefully with Floyd E.
