Thanks to all who watched the Haze film already and contacted Mr. Kelly at LHHS. He called to say he consented to show the movie long ago, the only discussion has been when and to what age group under what circumstances. In fact, he says LHHS multimedia teacher Paul Matchniff had his students put together another film with interviews and stories about Melinda Ann Lee, daughter of LH’s Don and Patsy, who died at the hands of a drunk driver. Both films are powerful, Mr. Kelly told me, and both will be shown to the seniors very soon. Then Mr. Kelly, along with RISD’s Jill Darling, will solicit input from those seniors about how to utilize the program for maximum impact and what ages should see the movie. It’s great to hear that there’s a full-court press to get the warnings about binge drinking and hazing with alcohol out to students in time to make a difference.
