Van Nuys High History
The history of Van Nuys High School is a long and storied one. From Redford to Abdul, Waterfield to Drysdale, and includes Marilyn and Natalie. Eventually we will add our own bit of history here. There are some famous and not so famous amongst us. For now we would encourage you to travel to our linking web sites for more details on the known and rumored past.
We were one of the last traditional classes to attend high school in the 60's. We still had rules for dress and grooming, knew the school alma mater, wore school colors, and took school spirit to heart. We were very fortunate, we went to the best school in the Valley and perhaps in the city.We were proud of going to a school with a great tradition, for creating well rounded individuals. We were some of the best greasers, surfers, scholars, jocks and the coolest nerds. We had highly creative theater arts actors, singers and artists. Super auto shop dudes and future scientist and businesmen were all created here. We enjoyed the various school clubs from academic to collecting stamps, and from service to socializing.We had the best orange juice and rolls and some of the most inspiring teachers available. Many of us went on tohigher education and have done quite well. But our social skills are perhaps what we can be most thankful for as Van Nuys High emphasized student interaction and was a relaxed, friendly environment to learn and make friends.The VNHS web site below is an excelent web page for the current and historical perspective of our school.
