Kids need artistic outlets and uses of talent just as much as athletic ones.

The BHS theater department made high school bearable. The arts are important.

I can't even articulate how much BHS theatre has meant to me, and Mr. Day was a huge part of that. He taught me so much - he set me up for success but gave me the room to fail, and for that I am a better person.

Having worked with the BHS theatre team since 2006, I am saddened that it is being threatened. Clearly the powers to be have no clue what the program, lead by Mr Day since 1994, has contributed to the school, students ("Theater Kids") and community. Shame on you.

Please don't let Theater go. Not every student is an athlete, or a whiz kid. Kids need to express themselves one way or another. And this, is a different and beautiful way.
I watched my little brother flourish with Mr. Day and the BHS acting community. Please, keep the arts alive!

While I was a student at Burnsville High School (1996-1999), Randy Day was the best teacher I had. He didn't teach any classes, but I learned more from him than I learned from most of the rest of my teachers combined. My career has nothing to do with the arts in any way, but I can safely say that without Randy Day guiding me through high school, I would not be where I am today. His passion for educating students and pushing them to their full potential is evident to anyone who has worked with him. Removing him from this position would do a great disservice to the community.

Mr. Day was my theater director when I was at BHS back in the late 90's. I always recall that as some of my favorite times.

Mr. Day is an amazing director and pushes us to do our very best every single rehearsal. We put on amazing shows, if I must say so myself, and bring in a lot of money for the school. We all have a passion for theatre and Mr. Day sees this and help us in any way possible.

This wonderful man has done far too much for every single one of us to go out like this. He is incredibly talented, passionate, full of heart, and he loves what he does. He should definitely be allowed to keep doing as many shows as he wants. He has done too much for this community!

Mr. Day is the best thing that has happened to BHS theatre. He has taught us all so much, not just about theatre but about life. Please don't take this away from us.

Seriously, BHS has always had an amazing theatre program. Thanks to Mr.Day, students had the space to express and grow into their potential as a performer.

In 1996 Mr. Day taught me how to run a light board. Over the next 4 years he taught me all about the stage and nurtured my passion for technical theatre. That passion led to my BFA in Stage Management, and a successful career in theatre for the last 16 years. Theatre at BHS and Randy Day inspired me to work hard in school, gave me motivation to “show up”, and led me on the path to success. He is a treasure that should not be lost.

Nurturing fine arts in high school students is very important for stress, and for looking to the future for creative careers. I wouldn't want theater to be cut from Burnsville.

Mr. Day had been a brilliant director, receiving better praise for his shows than the same show being performed at professional levels. He taught me many things about myself, including self-confidence, and self-acceptance. Callously destroying a pillar of this caliber in the local arts community is nothing shy of a tragedy. Shame on anyone who would have agreed to this monstrosity.
