Westminster Chamber to Honor La Quinta High Teacher-Coach



The Westminster Chamber of Commerce is honoring Dave Demarest, La Quinta High School math teacher and varsity baseball coach, as a ‘Teacher of the Year’ for 2003-04. La Quinta High School, located in Westminster, is part of the Garden Grove Unified School District.

The Chamber will recognize three local teachers, one each from La Quinta and Westminster high schools and one from the Westminster School District, at an awards dinner on Thursday, May 20, 6:30 p.m., at Seafood World Restaurant, 15351 Brookhurst St.

Demarest, a resident of Huntington Beach, was nominated by La Quinta’s school leadership team of administrators, counselors, Title I coordinator, school secretary, plant foreman, and both the athletic and activities directors.
He has taught math and coached the varsity baseball team since 1974. As coach, his teams have won more than 600 games and have captured 20 Garden Grove League and four CIF titles.
