WEST BEND - Knowing ticket sales may lag and the topic will hit home
hard, the West Bend High Schools student production committee chose
to put on a play about teen drug abuse anyway, and administrators
backed them.

Now, so is Dr. Marjorie Vukelich.
Upon reading an article on "Go Ask Alice" in the Daily
News, the mother of two East students became inspired, so much so
she got out her checkbook to help the schools’ anti-drug and
alcohol message.
Vukelich said she was "proud of the students that they would
pick that play. I was really impressed with the school that they
would support something like that even though the ticket sales would
go down."
