Dear Novato High School Family,

We are thrilled to announce that, following a comprehensive search process, Mr. Max Buchholz has been selected as our next Athletic Director, pending final employment clearances and credential issuance.

Max brings many years of experience in athletic administration and coaching, most recently serving as a baseball coach at Novato High School. Throughout the interview process, Max stood out for his deep commitment to student-athlete development, sportsmanship, and building a culture of inclusivity and excellence both on and off the field. He says,

“I am thrilled to be joining the Hornet community and look forward to raising the bar for athletics here at Novato High School. We have outstanding sports programs, and our athletes and teams have accomplished remarkable things in recent years. Let’s build on that momentum and continue to show why Novato High School is a great place to be a student-athlete.”

While we finalize the standard onboarding and credentialing processes required by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing and the Novato Unified School District, Max is already working closely with our administration to ensure a smooth transition for the upcoming school year.

We anticipate Max will officially step into the role as soon as possible this summer. Please join us in welcoming him to the Hornet family!

Go Hornets! ...
