Highline High ’60 grads recall women of WW II
By Sharon Hofstra Haugen
(Editor’s Note: As the 1960 graduates of Burien’s Highline High School celebrate their milestone birthdays, Sharon Haugen looks back at the historic time in which they were born.)
This year the Highline/Mt. Rainier Girlie Luncheon--Class of ‘60, is celebrating their 70th Birthdays.
We have included the Guys from our class this year to participate in this celebration, as the Guys from our class that attended last year's After Party, were interested in being a part of this special event...so this year it is the "Girlie/Guy Luncheon Class of ‘60 - 70th Birthday Party"!
The Highline/Mt. Rainier Class of ‘60, all entered this world in the latter part of 1941 and throughout 1942, and would be those born in the beginning of our involvement in WW11, so only naturally the theme for our luncheon this year will be the World War 11 Era, the Big Band Music and the role of women during this trying time.
