This letter is in response to the excellence shown by the students involved in the VHS production of Bye, At the cast party, after the Saturday performance, I found a group of students thoroughly enjoying themselves without drugs or booze; just good conversation and a lot of fun. I feel confident that I Bye Birdie. Never before in my teaching career have I had the pleasure of working with students who are so dedicated to giving one hundred percent. Time and time again I was surprised by the resposibility shown by the students. For example, the Thursday before the performance, there was still quite a large clutter back stage. Without mentioning it, the students took it upon themselves to clean it up. Saturday between performances, the gym needed to be cleaned and the chairs straightened. This was also accomplished without mention. . The arranging for use of the lights, sound system, and set construction was all accomplished with a minimum of director imput. Then, after all the hard work and weeks of toil, I was again impressed with the professionalism, and the quality of acting during the performances. All of this made for a very rewarding experience for the students and for myself. After all of this, I thought nothing The Timberline is the official newspaper publication of the Vernonia High School student body, published every three weeks by the VHS journalism class, and printed in conjunction with the Vernonia Freedom. Editor.................................... Kathi Rinks Assistant Editor......................Vickie Pitt Reporters......................... Thorgen Brown speak for the students who were present, also. All in all, I look on the entire experience as very positive for everyone involved. Sincerely, Brian Montgomery To the Editor., My sincerest thanks, to everyone- students, staff and community members- involved in the production of Bye, Bye can be used for years to come. Thanks also to the school beard for your initial and continued support for the production. Thanks to all the community members who supported us with your attendance. I was over-whelmed with your response. Directing the production of Bye, Bye Birdie has been one of the most gratifying experiences I have had in my twelve years of teaching. Working with a talented, dedicated, and cooperative group like you had truly been a mountain-top experience. And, finally, thanks to my husband, Dan, and to my son, Christopher, for your understanding and cooperation. I thank each and'every one of you. In all sincerity, Mrs. Kathy Sevig Birdie. A production of this scope would have life, to try something new, which each one of you will be doing when you graduate. It is just as scary for me as it will be for you, but changes and new experiences need to occur in people’s lives to help them grow. This happens throughout life and it isn’t easy leaving people that you have grown to love and care about. This is one of the hardest decisions that I have had to make because I thoroughly enjoy working with the students of the student body. I don’t think you realize what really neat people you are. I have met and talked to a lot of people during my career here and I am always proud to say I work with Vernonia students. I really do care about you and who you aie and where you are going. For some of you, I am an acquaintance, and for some of you, we have gone through a lot together. Whatever the relationship is, I will really truly miss you. And just because I have decided been impossible without your support, cooperation and many long hours of work.
