Sue Brazeal visits Shermie & his wife Jill

North Platte, Nebraska will never be the same.  Sue had a great time, Jill and Sue visited all the sewing shops and stores in the area and Shermie took Sue on a 30 mile cruise along the North and South Platte rivers on his XL1200C 2009 Harley.  Sue loved the ride.  Although due to high winds, she lost her biker glasses.  Enjoy the photo Sue, you'll never see them again, they are part of Nebraska now.  Sue visited Shermie & Jill, May 21-24, 2010.  Sue finally got to see Shermie perform at the piano in person.  Many times, Sue tried to play with Shermie at the Vance School playground after school, but, Shermie would respond with saying, "I have to get home to practice the piano"...  And now you know the rest of the story...  "Shermie at the PIano"

Bomb threat leads to HS evacuation   Published: Friday, September 28, 2007 9:40 AM

Students at Washington High School were required to evacuate the school after a bomb threat was called in Thursday morning.

The Kansas City, Kan., Police Department responded to the call shortly after 9 a.m. Later on, a suspicious package was found outside of the building, located at 7340 Leavenworth Road, by a school resource officer after an order to sweep the area was given by officers.

The KCK Police Department’s EOD Unit was called in to investigate the package. The unit determined that there was nothing dangerous inside, but still the unit took the package away and later blew it up. The exact contents of the package were not released.

Students - who had been moved to a nearby athletic field at the school - returned to class at about 11:30 a.m. after police cleared the scene.

The Kansas City, Kan., Public Schools District released a statement informing parents about the situation and informed them that they did not need to pick up their children.

No one was injured because of the incident, which is still under investigation.

With the threat at Washington, facilities in all four school districts in the county have experienced security threats in the past several months. Last spring, Piper High School, Turner High School and Bonner Springs High School all experienced a threat of some kind. Bishop Ward High School also caught a student bringing a toy gun to school.
Shermie Wiehe  I stopped and visited with Mr. Ed Hoskings after not seeing him since graduation.  He's in great shape and all white hair but looks the same as the days of WHS band days.  Seeing him was a highlight of my 7-day vacation visiting family in Kansas.  Ed retired I believe in 1994.  I also learned from Ed that Mr. Marlin Cooper, (Coronado Band teacher) retired from teaching music also.  Mr. Hoskings is still active on the tennis court.  If you would like to send Mr. Hoskings a message, his email address is as follows:  hmomopopo@aol.com
Howard Rhoades  I went to Arrowhead Jr. High and started at Washington but move during my sophomore year, without getting into the yearbook, but had paid for one, so I have the 67-68 edition.  I remember about 1/2 of the folks, since the other 1/2 came from Coronado, I guess.  I was one of about 4 sophomores who made it into A Cappella choir that year (Vicki Rhodes & Bonnie Luscombe were two others) and at home coming was one of the students stuffed into a VW beetle and rolled out on to the field during half-time.  I moved shortly after that.  I have wondered about a lot of folks since then.  Howard@Rhoades.ws
