List of Minor Characters in Beavis and Butt-head - Highland High Faculty and Staff

Highland High Faculty and Staff

  • School nurse: A heavy-set woman with thick glasses, a mole on her chin, and wearing a traditional nursing dress and cap, she tends to Beavis and Butt-head whenever the occasion calls for it, such as when the duo got head lice (Head Lice), and when Beavis severed his finger in wood shop (Woodshop). A character of similar appearance and voice appears as a worker at an animal shelter who allows Beavis and Butt-head to take a stray dog without paying the $50 adoption fee because of the dog's aggressive behavior (Bad Dog).
  • Janitor/crazy farmer: Shown in different contexts; besides Highland High, he is once shown as the janitor at the local mall who calls Beavis and Butt-head "dumbasses" (Beavis and Butt-head's Island). In these contexts he seems to simply be an ordinary old man. In Cow Tipping and Bungholio: Lord of the Harvest, he is portrayed as a slow-witted, bluish-gray-skinned farmer who is dangerously senile. On both occasions he appears to be attempting to decapitate Beavis with a chainsaw. Voiced by Kristofor Brown.
  • Mrs. Dickey: A female science teacher at Highland, and occasional customer at Burger World. She is annoyed by Beavis and Butt-head, particularly by their incessant laughing when she tries to teach sex education (No Laughing). She forced Daria Morgendorffer to work with the demented duo in Scientific Stuff, in the hope of getting a proper experiment out of the lads. She appears much less frequently as the series progresses. Voiced by Penelope Trud.
  • Mr. Herrera: A middle-aged Latino Spanish teacher who hates Beavis and Butt-head, because the only Spanish they know is what they heard at Taco Bell (and Beavis can not even get that right) (No Laughing). Beavis and Butt-head always mispronounce his name. He had a number of early appearances, but later faded into the background. His most prominent appearances are in No Laughing and The Great Cornholio. He appears briefly sitting on the stage in PTA, smoking in the faculty lounge in Steamroller and also at the party in the teachers' lounge in Beavis and Butt-head Are Dead, where he expresses joy the lads are dead. One of the teachers who volunteered time to help prepare B&B for aptitude testing in School Test. Voiced by Sam Johnson.
  • Jim the Substitute: A substitute teacher who briefly takes over when Mr. Van Driessen injures himself attempting to assume the lotus position on his desk (Substitute). Beavis, Butt-head, and other classmates take an immediate liking to him on account of his free-spirited, unorthodox way of running the class. Despite the duo's cynicism and irresponsibility, he continues to like them (and everyone else). He is last seen being seriously injured when Beavis and Butt-head fail to catch him when he falls backward off the desk in a trust exercise. He is based on a teacher that the creator had while in high school at Saint Pius High School named Mr. Zuber. A character of identical appearance is shown standing on the edge of the crowd in front of the school in Beavis and Butt-head are Dead, and as one of the assembled teachers who try to prepare B&B for aptitude tests in School Test. Voiced by Julián Rebolledo (who would later voice Daria's father, Jake, in the spin-off series, Daria).
  • Dreama: A young woman who meets the boys in the school nurse's office after the two are sent there due to their poor personal hygiene (Let's Clean It Up). She dances, plays Hindustani music on a tape player, and ultimately gives an oil massage to the two, much to their delight. It is later revealed that Dreama is a teacher's aide at the school, and her actions were attributed to a daze that ensued after she suffered a concussion.
  • Dr. Floss: A psychiatrist who is hired at Highland High (They're Coming to Take Me Away, Huh Huh). She requests to see the duo in her office immediately after introducing herself in Mr. Buzzcut's class. She gives the boys a Rorschach inkblot test, with the boys interpreting each picture as a man masturbating. When shown a signed photo of Julio Iglesias (grasping a microphone stand protruding from between his legs), Butt-head describes it as "just a bunch of weird shapes." She sends them to an inpatient psychiatric facility.
  • Ms. Jenkins: The school's speech therapist (Speech Therapy). Beavis and Butt-head thoroughly enjoy her class as they misinterpret what she is teaching. They mistake a diagram of the vocal cords for a picture of a vagina, and they mistake things said during speech exercises. They mistake the phrase "as much" for "assmunch", and mistake the phrase "but whole" for "butthole". Principal McVicker becomes angry when the boys repeat these phrases when the teacher asks them to show him what they learned in class, but Ms. Jenkins intervenes before he assaults B&B.
  • Mr. Dick Gaylord: The school's career counselor, who has trouble coming up with a suitable career path for either of the duo in The Future of Beavis and Butt-head. The duo refer to him by his first name.

    If you would feel the full force of a tempest, take up your residence on the top of Mount Washington, or at the Highland Light, in Truro.

    Rhetoric may be defined as the faculty of observing in any given case the available means of persuasion.
    Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)

    In the far South the sun of autumn is passing
    Like Walt Whitman walking along a ruddy shore.
    He is singing and chanting the things that are part of him,
    The worlds that were and will be, death and day.
    Nothing is final, he chants. No man shall see the end.
    His beard is of fire and his staff is a leaping flame.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
