Dear Cindy:
I just wanted to write you to let you know how impressed our staff and students were with the muli media presentation that your people did for us on April 27, 2007. The title of the show, “Wake Up!” said it all. From the moment that the presentation began until it ended an hour later, our students were ‘riveted’! Junior high school students are a tough audience at the best of times. Your performers had our 500 students soaking up everything that they said and did.
We have had a number of similar presentations at D. S. MacKenzie over the past several years. Most of them have been very good. The “Wake Up!” presentation, however, was electric! The transition between one act to another was smooth but not slick. We had the strong feeling that we were in a conversation. It was comfortable and relaxed. Our students were immediately at ease.
The theme of the presentation was particularly appropriate, and resonated extremely with our young students. Asking young people to wake up to the incredible power they have collectively to change the world for the better is like rock music to their ears.
I would also like to mention that I greatly appreciated the friendliness and flexibility of the crew and performers. It was like having our own staff in the building. We would have them back again in a minute.
As I indicated on my recent fax to you, I would ask that you contact me in late August 2007 to make the arrangements for Absolute to return to our school in the Spring of 2008. It will be a much anticipated event.
Yours truly
Calvin Jensen, Assistant Principal
