Outstanding Volunteerism<br />
Preparing for an Excellent Future<br />
“Fulton County has been my only employer<br />
my entire adult life,” says Principal Peter<br />
Zervakos. Mr. Z‟s office is a testament to thirty<br />
years of distinguished service in the Fulton County<br />
school system as a teacher and administrator. <strong>The</strong><br />
walls are lined with plaques, awards, certificates of<br />
recognition, photos, artwork, letters from<br />
appreciative students and parents, and a variety of<br />
souvenirs and memorabilia from a lifetime of<br />
school-related events. <strong>The</strong>se memories will come<br />
down from the walls and go home with Mr. Z on<br />
June 30, 2009, his last official day as Principal of<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>.<br />
Mr. Z explains that the time is right for<br />
leaving, and he has no regrets. “I‟ve been able to<br />
accomplish the things I wanted to,” he says, “and I<br />
feel I can leave on a personal high note.” His<br />
future career plans are uncertain, but he looks<br />
forward to switching gears and “putting my family<br />
in the front seat for awhile, while I can still enjoy<br />
them.” Spending more time with wife, Sally, and<br />
their three daughters -- Elizabeth, 21, Rachel, 17,<br />
and Danielle, 15 -- is a high priority for Mr. Z.<br />
College Park <strong>High</strong><br />
<strong>School</strong> 1980. Mr. Z<br />
was Band Director<br />
1979 - 1983.<br />
Peter and Sally Zervakos<br />
first met when he was a<br />
band director at Milton<br />
<strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> and she was a<br />
student teacher in chorus.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir first date was a<br />
Milton football game.<br />
Sally went on to teach<br />
general music at Findley<br />
Oaks Elementary.<br />
Mr. Z‟s passion for music<br />
has stayed with him over<br />
the years. He plays the<br />
organ every Sunday at the<br />
Hellenic Greek Orthodox<br />
Cathedral, and has done so<br />
since he was in the 11 th grade. He hopes to<br />
continue working in the field of music even after<br />
he retires from <strong>Northview</strong>, though he admits the<br />
sudden change in the economy means he‟ll take a<br />
look at other options as well.<br />
As the<br />
Principal of<br />
<strong>Northview</strong><br />
since it<br />
opened, Mr. Z<br />
has put the<br />
emphasis on<br />
excellence, and<br />
his recently Mr. Z at <strong>Northview</strong> 2009<br />
named<br />
replacement, Pam Spalla, agrees with that strategy:<br />
“I think everyone in the building would equate Mr.<br />
Z‟s name with words like „tradition‟, „high<br />
expectations‟ and „good home training‟! As he<br />
passes the torch to me, I plan on carrying on the<br />
many traditions he started while continuing to<br />
make this school a national landmark of<br />
excellence. Together, Mr. Z and Dr. Macris have<br />
made each of our students strive to live the quote<br />
that graces the Food Court wall – „We are what we<br />
repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act<br />
but a habit.‟ (Aristotle)”<br />
Mr. Z says, as the Principal of <strong>Northview</strong>,<br />
“<strong>The</strong>re is never a time when school is not on my<br />
mind. It becomes your life.” NHS junior<br />
swimmer Allison Dow recalls seeing him every<br />
year at the quad meet in Chamblee. “This year I<br />
saw him wearing our state title t-shirt, and I know<br />
he was going to other school functions as well. He<br />
must change his clothes a lot on days like that.”<br />
This is a testament to his dedication in being a part<br />
in every aspect of the students‟ lives.<br />
Preparation for excellence is what has put<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> firmly on the map. Mr. Z, along with<br />
our administration and faculty, has given many<br />
students an outstanding education and opened up<br />
endless possibilities to utilize it.<br />
We all wish Mr. Z much success in his<br />
future endeavors, whatever they may be. One thing<br />
we know for certain: Mr. Z will approach the next<br />
phase in his life with the same passion for<br />
excellence and commitment as he brought to<br />

From the Principal’s Desk:<br />
G reetings Fellow <strong>Titan</strong>s! Since the opening of <strong>Northview</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>,<br />
so much has been accomplished for which we all can be proud.<br />
Please accept my congratulations for a great year and my appreciation for all<br />
your support.<br />
As the year draws to a close, please remember that these first seven years<br />
are only the start of a journey to excellence. Complacency is not an option;<br />
please be assured that every year will be better than those before. I had<br />
the honor of being the founding principal of this school. Now, I pass the<br />
torch to Ms. Spalla to continue a journey that has no end. I am fully confident<br />
that she is the right person to lead our school to the next level of excellence!<br />
Although I still cannot imagine not being an active participant in the life of<br />
<strong>Northview</strong>, my heart tells me that it really is now time to focus on the more important role of being a<br />
dad. I also look forward to devoting more time to my career as a musician. I hope to have many<br />
employable years remaining to enjoy being the staff organist of the Greek Orthodox Cathedral and as<br />
conductor of the Hellenic Community Orchestra. And if everything works out as anticipated, I really<br />
will be a high school band director again!<br />
As always, if I can be of assistance, please do not hesitate to ask. Together, we will continue Ever<br />
Upward and Onward as we strive to be the flagship school for all of Georgia. Please have a safe<br />
and restful summer!<br />
Peter F. Zervakos— Mr. Z.<br />
My child had a very demanding schedule this<br />
year and although I am proud of his motivation<br />
to excel, I worry that he was often overwhelmed<br />
by the workload. What should students<br />
do if, after getting extra help from<br />
teachers, they still do not understand the subject<br />
matter?<br />
First and most important, do not give up. It is not<br />
unusual for students to sometime feel there is no<br />
hope, and then a few weeks later the situation is<br />
much more optimistic. Sometimes, students will<br />
come to me in mid-semester almost begging to<br />
be taken out of a class because there is no hope<br />
of passing. After explaining that a change can<br />
not be made until the end of the semester, we<br />
usually agree to “do the best he/she can and let’s<br />
see how it plays out.” In most cases, the student<br />
ends up staying in the class for the next semester<br />
because the situation did improve.<br />
If your child is experiencing academic challenges,<br />
now is the time to be proactive. Our counselors<br />
Musing with Mr. Z….<br />
are sponsoring study skills seminars and all teachers<br />
offer help sessions and individual instruction<br />
as needed. Parents have email access to all staff<br />
members and may register for ParentConnect<br />
through our website, www.northviewhigh.com.<br />
Peer tutors are also available; please go to our<br />
website, select clubs, then select Tutors in Action<br />
Network. Remember: Every child can realize success<br />
if we all work together!<br />
Finally, encourage the student to attempt every<br />
assignment so that he/she will be eligible for recovery.<br />
<strong>The</strong> recovery process does not guarantee<br />
a passing grade, but can often make the difference<br />
between passing and failing. If the student<br />
is spending an inordinate amount of time on a particular<br />
class because the work is too difficult, then<br />
set a daily time limit. Decide upon a reasonable<br />
amount of time your child can devote each day to<br />
the class, and stick to it. This will enable your<br />
child to budget his/her time so that other classes<br />
do not suffer due to fatigue or burnout, and will<br />
help develop time management skills.

JROTC Cadets Among Nation’s Finest<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> JROTC Cadets represented our school with honor at the George C. Marshall<br />
JROTC Leadership Symposium in Lexington, Virginia, the home of Virginia Military Institute as<br />
well as Washington and Lee University. Our cadets were among the 128 students selected<br />
from over 300,000 JROTC cadets worldwide to participate in this event. Cadets Matt Nelson,<br />
Chris Potts, Scott Barlow, and Sam Wolfson were recognized by the Marshall Foundation and<br />
the United States Army Cadet Command as being the best of the best. <strong>The</strong>ir selection placed<br />
them in very elite company among the top 1% of all JROTC cadets, another <strong>Northview</strong> first!<br />
In addition, members of the <strong>Titan</strong> Battalion were selected over thirty-three competing schools<br />
to serve as the color guard for the closing ceremony. <strong>The</strong>y were also privileged with the opportunity<br />
to brief the National Director of Army JROTC on their mentorship program with State<br />
Bridge Elementary <strong>School</strong> and their class project of developing an instructional DVD on cadet<br />
academic portfolios.<br />
During the symposium, students were exposed to history through guided tours, learned best<br />
practices through peer interaction, and participated in seminars focused on leadership principles<br />
established by George C. Marshall, the soldier, statesman and peacemaker. Students<br />
attending the symposium received two college credit hours for attending the event, developing<br />
presentations, and submitting reflective notes.

Hands On <strong>Northview</strong><br />
On Saturday, April 18, 2009, ninetythree<br />
volunteers met at <strong>Northview</strong><br />
<strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> by the bus canopy to<br />
sign in and give their landscaping<br />
skills to the school for a total of 254<br />
hours. It was amazing the way the<br />
Hands on machine ran. TITANS<br />
topography was added to the left<br />
side of Abbotts Bridge Road. Other<br />
work included spreading mulch and<br />
pine straw, general trash pickup all<br />
around the school with over 400<br />
pieces of gum picked up. Special<br />
recognition goes to outstanding parent<br />
volunteers Tom Randall and<br />
John Deer liaison, as well as our<br />
Hands on <strong>Northview</strong> chairs Carla and<br />
Kenichi Nakano.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Golden Shovel was in hot contention.<br />
<strong>The</strong> following groups were<br />
represented: Beta – 19; JROTC – 7;<br />
Key Club – 12; Chinese - 3; NHS –<br />
8; PTSA – 4; Self – 31; FCA -1; German<br />
-2; SOS-1. <strong>The</strong> one with the<br />
most attendees and winner of the<br />
Golden Shovel for Spring 2009 is<br />
Beta with 19 participants and 52.25<br />
hours for Hands on <strong>Northview</strong>!!<br />
Relay for Life is an<br />
event to raise awareness<br />
and funds for cancer<br />
research. As a team<br />
every participant attempts<br />
to earn $100 or<br />
more to be on the team,<br />
which all goes to cancer. <strong>The</strong> group has a schedule<br />
to walk the track for 12 hours and has to keep<br />
someone from the team on the track the entire<br />
time. Cancer does not stop; neither can we stop<br />
our fight.<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> faculty and staff, fully supported by the<br />
administration,<br />
contributed by<br />
buying casual<br />
days for a week,<br />
with many teachers<br />
donating more<br />
than was required.<br />
Students raised<br />
money in their<br />
neighborhoods, from businesses, selling “feet”<br />
signs and candy. It was a great team effort and<br />
an inspiring and fun experience.<br />

Fantastic Year for <strong>Northview</strong>’s Math Teams<br />
<strong>The</strong> 2008 – 2009 school year has been a banner year for <strong>Northview</strong>’s math teams. This year,<br />
With Alpharetta <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>, <strong>Northview</strong> co-hosted the North Fulton Invitational Mathematics<br />
Tournament in September. <strong>The</strong> students then hosted the first <strong>Titan</strong> Invitational Math Tournament<br />
that was held in January. Approximately 125 students from 16 high schools participated<br />
on that day. We are looking forward to hosting again next year.<br />
Our Junior Varsity team placed very well in the tournaments they attended, which included a<br />
1 st place showing at the Creekview tournament and a 2 nd place at the Georgia Tech <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong><br />
Mathematics Competition. <strong>The</strong>ir season culminated with a 2 nd place showing at the Junior Varsity<br />
State Tournament held in March.<br />
<strong>Northview</strong>’s Varsity team performed extremely well this year, winning 1 st place at tournaments<br />
held at Cobb County, Creekview and Greater Atlanta Christian <strong>School</strong>. <strong>The</strong>re were also several<br />
2 nd place finishes, including the University of Georgia tournament and the Rockdale County<br />
tournament. <strong>The</strong>ir season ended with a 2 nd place finish at the Georgia Council of Teachers of<br />
Mathematics State Tournament held in April.<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> was also very well represented through individual competitions held throughout the<br />
year. Based on scores from the American Mathematics Competition, 13 students were selected<br />
to take the American Invitational Mathematics Examination. Two students, Sitan Chen and<br />
Benjamin Hu, were selected to take the qualifying test for the United States Mathematics<br />
Olympiad. Sitan and Benjamin were 2 of 11 students in the state of Georgia chosen to participate.<br />
Also, through two rounds of the Kennesaw State University Mathematics Competition,<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> students had 7 of the top 35 scores in the state.<br />

Congratulations to many world language students<br />
from <strong>Northview</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> who<br />
attained national recognition for excellent<br />
performance on the 2009 National Spanish Ex-<br />
aminations.<br />
Students from <strong>Northview</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> earned a total of 57<br />
gold, 74 silver and 48 bronze medals along with 70 honorable<br />
mentions.“Attaining a medal or honorable mention for any student<br />
on the National Spanish Examinations is very prestigious,”<br />
said Kevin Cessna-Buscemi, National Director of the<br />
Exams, “because the exams are the largest of their kind in the<br />
United States with well over 115,000 students participating in<br />
2009.”<br />
Students from <strong>Northview</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> have a long history of<br />
high achievement on these exams and participating students<br />
were taught by Spanish teachers Carrie Gutierrez, Zandra<br />
Horton, Susan Johnson, Patricia Rodriguez and Estela Valenciano.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Northview</strong> JCL is finishing up the 2008-<br />
2009 year with many awards and accolades. <strong>The</strong><br />
most recent and largest event was the state convention<br />
held at Rock Eagle. Over 1000 Latin Students representing<br />
different schools attended this convention in order to compete<br />
in various sports, arts, and tests.<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> was very successful in the oh-so-famous chariot<br />
races. <strong>The</strong> NHS JCL was first in the boys and girls chariot run.<br />
While some consider this a miraculous run, others see it as a<br />
form of redemption. At last year’s state convention, the JCL<br />
not only failed to win a title, but took a few casualties along the<br />
way. A new chariot and a new year brought victory and glory,<br />
but lacked the running over of a student.<br />
<strong>The</strong> NHS JCL brought home many academic awards in tests<br />
regarding subjects from Roman history to Greek derivatives.<br />
<strong>The</strong> list of academic awards was seemingly endless which<br />
reflects the fact that <strong>Northview</strong> continues to be a powerhouse<br />
in academics. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Northview</strong> JCL made history this past convention<br />
in the competition of Certamen or Latin quiz bowl. Our<br />
Novice team achieved 3rd in their division, while the Lower<br />
and Upper teams achieved 1st in their respective divisions.<br />
<strong>The</strong> current Upper level team has won three straight<br />
state titles, a feat that no other team has ever accomplished<br />
before.<br />
<strong>Northview</strong> had two students running for an office in the Georgia<br />
Junior Classical League. We are proud to announce that<br />
Arun Kumar and Parth Sehgal were successful in bids for<br />
President and Vice President respectively. We wish them a<br />
great term and hope that they will continue to bring honor to<br />
<strong>Northview</strong>.<br />
Twenty students from <strong>Northview</strong> will be attending this year’s<br />
national convention at the University of California Davis this<br />
summer. Though we will officially be representing Georgia, we<br />
hope to bring many awards back to <strong>Northview</strong>.<br />

Don’t<br />
have a<br />
cow – buy<br />
one!<br />
Looking for a<br />
way to encourage<br />
their students<br />
to speak<br />
more French in class, French teachers<br />
Catherine Francisse, Roya Schweinbeck<br />
and Valerie White put their heads together<br />
and came up with a creative solution - a<br />
cow! Instead of nagging and ranting at students<br />
(commonly known as “having a<br />
cow”), the three French teachers invented<br />
an a-moo-zing way of persuading students<br />
to stay in the target language. Students<br />
who speak English in class get a toy cow<br />
on the desk and have to perform a short<br />
penalty at the end of class. Juniors Kaylee<br />
Goss and Jessica McRoberts ruminated<br />
and decided to milk this class actvitity,<br />
turning it into a fundraiser for Oxfam.<br />
With help from the Chick-Fil-A, French<br />
classes held a competition fundraiser and<br />
raised over $200 for an Oxfam project to<br />
buy animals for Africa. Winning classes get<br />
a Chick-Fil-A tray, and the money collected<br />
will be used to buy animals for an African<br />
village. One cow costs $75, so enough<br />
money was raised to buy two cows and a<br />
goat. So no kidding when we say that<br />
once again, <strong>Northview</strong> French students are<br />
la crème de la crème!<br />

Ha Lim Yue, a <strong>Northview</strong><br />
senior competed at the 4th<br />
"Chinese Bridge" US <strong>High</strong><br />
<strong>School</strong> Chinese Speech Contest on<br />
April 17, 2009. She won the third place<br />
in the special group. <strong>The</strong> contestants came<br />
from 21 states this year. <strong>The</strong> final contest<br />
was held at the University of Massachusetts<br />
Confucius Institute in Boston. <strong>The</strong> contest<br />
aims to give students an opportunity to<br />
demonstrate their skills in speaking Chinese<br />
language. Each student presented an individual<br />
speech and answered the questions<br />
in Chinese, then were judged by a panel of<br />
Chinese language teachers and language<br />
experts. Congratulations to Ha Lim Yue<br />
and <strong>Northview</strong>’s newly established Chinese<br />
Program.
