After two and a half years at BVHS, physics teacher Jim Nazworthy is retiring from teaching. His favorite BV memory occurred last year, when he got to see his students lead the class.

“The day after we take a test, we go over the test,” Nazworthy said. “I would say ‘You guys have to come up with the answers as a class.’ After the second or third time of that, a couple of outspoken students just took control and said ‘Naz, we’ve got this.’”

After leaving BV, Nazworthy’s plan is to take on a very different job.

“I’ll be self-employed as a cabinet maker,” Nazworthy said. “I’m also doing a little electrical work.”
