me 3 NSE W Fs ¥ 1 PAGE 8 THE DALLAS POST Sunday, March 23, 208 VIDEO Continued from Page 1 will be about 15 to 20 minutes long and divided into three main sections. Part one of the documentary will focus on the merger of Dallas Borough, Dallas Township, Kingstown Township and Franklin Town- ship high schools. The quartet looked at pop- ulation projections used in de- termining the size for the school and felt those numbers were too low. Officials likely never expected a population boom after the flood of 1972, the students say, and now, be- cause of increased population, the school’s auditorium can- not accommodate the entire student body. The current school was intended to serve 600 students in grades 10 through 12. Today, close to 900 students roam the halls of Dal- las High School. Issues will be explored per- taining to the first students to graduate from Dallas High School, the Class of 1962, in- cluding uniforms, mascots, school colors and alma ma- ters. The four will also show the school over the ages and feature noteworthy Dallas alumni. Section two will look at pre- sent-day Dallas High School. It will present structural prob- lems of the current building and overcrowding, clubs and activities and technological advances. The final part of the video will discuss plans for the fu- ture high school. The students will show blueprints of the new school to be built behind the current high school which will be demolished and turned into a parking lot. The esti- mated completion is fall of 2010. Even though their project is not yet finished, the students have learned a lot about the process and amount of work that goes into planning a new building. They noticed differ- ences in the plans for the cur- rent high schooland the future one based upon a change in the times such as more safety con- cerns, revised and additional codes and improved accom- modations for the disabled. “With the technology (of to- day), you can create these dig- SUBMITTED PHOTO Four seniors from Dallas High School are creating a video on the history of the current high school as part of an independent study program introduced this year. The video will examine the jointure of schools that caused the construction of the high school, people involved and notable alumni. The finished video will be shown in September at this year's Dallas Harvest Festival. The four Dallas High School students involved, from left to right, are Erica Lisses, Lauren Zimniski, Virginia Reinert and Peter Steve. ital images of the school,” Re- inert said. Another element the four have learned from the project is the importance of working together. “We all finish each other’s work,” Zimniski said. “We’ve learned to come to- gether and get things done,” Lisses added. Working together is also necessary for the students be- cause they have limited video editing skills. They know it will take all of their efforts, and possibly those of a profes- sional, to make the video a re- ality. But the most challenging as- pect of the project has been tracking down the informa- tion needed to compile the video. Interviews have been helpful, but the four are strug- gling to locate written infor- mation. “The most challenging thing for us so far would have to be finding primary sources and just sources in general,” Steve said. “The people we work with from the committee have been great with helping as much as possible when we need them. It. is. a very time- ‘consuming project as well. With so many of us going in "100 different places at differ- ent times, it’s hard to meet and schedule interviews.” Since all four students will attend college outside North- east Pennsylvania this fall, it is unlikely they will make it back for the showing of the video in September at the Dallas Har- vest Festival. A pre-film seg- ment that shows the four stu- . dents will be filmed at school before the conclusion of the academic year. — King Crossword — Answers Solution time: 27 mins.
