Group Told of Varied Activity
Redmond, March 18 Parents of Redmond union high
school students are still talking about the "classes' they at
tended last Friday evening at the school. Following a program
at the gymnasium, class schedules were passed out by attend
ants stationed at tables in the school's lower hall, and after
overcoming their initial self consciousness, parents entered
into the spirit of rushing from one class to another. Before the
six periods were over, typical remarks being exchanged be
tween the visiting parents meeting in the halls included :
"I have a P.B. class now." "We must dash over, or we will
be late for class." "There is the last bell" and away they
went, much in the same manner as do their sons and daugh
ters on regular school days.
Stationed about the halls were "Ask Me" boys, veritable
sources of information who were prepared to direct parents
and answer their questions.
At the program preceding the "classes", Jim Heston, stu
dent body president who acted as master of ceremonies, wel
comed the parents to the open house and expressed the hope
that the affair could be an annual event.
The program itself was opened by the girls' glee club direct
ed by Miss Virginia Berg. This group sang "Alouette" and
"Little David Play On Your Horn".
Under the direction of Frank de Lespinasse the high
school band played "His Honor" and "Boogie Woogie Band".
I. M. Davies, activities director, clarified the activities pro
gram of the school. He explained that activities had become
so numerous that either they had to be thrown out or included
in the regular schedule. The latter course was taken and al
though the program is in an experimental stage it has proved
highly successful. Beside organization meetings, activities
offered for the daily twenty minute period are ballroom danc
ing, baton twirling, dance band, girls' agriculture, shorthand,
woodworking and others.
Principal M. E. Larive greeted the parents and explained
briefly the school's operation. He extended to the parents an
invitation to attend school board meetings and invited them
for conferences.
Ernie Magill, student body vice-president, gave instruc
tions for following class schedules, explaining that while
actually the students have two minutes between classes, the
"oldsters" would be allowed four.
The drill team under the direction of Miss Ruby Stevenson
executed a difficult routine. Drill leader was Doris Osenton
who also put on a baton twirling exhibition. Assisting Doris
as baton twirlers and leaders were Joyce Carr, Shirley Jones,
and small Joan Larive, daughter of the high school principal.
This team had been honored by an invitation to- perform at the
state basketball tournament in Eugene.
After the program and class schedule, refreshments were
served in the home economics rooms under the direction of
Mrs. Wayne Reddekop.
As the parents visited with each other over their coffee and
cokes only one expression of criticism could be overheard
"Why didn't they think of this sooner?"
The affair was put on under the direction of the student s
council. Indications are that a precedent has been established.
All pictures on this page were taken by Lester Houk.
