I went to my 50th reunion last fall. I never bought my senior year yearbook, so it was kind of interesting that they had converted it to disc, and I bought one. Modern technology!
You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

I have mine, somewhere. I also have at least 1 junior high yearbook and the 1962 Gecko from American Community School in Saigon with my second grade picture.
I’m not sure if I have any or not. My ex wife went to the same high school so I know we had copies but I couldn’t tell you whose they were or if she gave me any when we split. There are a bunch of boxes of books I’ve not unpacked.
I wouldn’t mind having my senior one. I actually have three friends from high school that live near me now so it would be fun to bust it out and check it out with them.

I have one from junior high and maybe three from high school. Class of 91. My high school turned 100 years old in my sophomore year, so I had to buy that one.
I have my high school yearbook from the class of 1964. I attended first grade in one city. I attended the second grade in another city. I attended the third grade in two different states.
While I was growing up, I attended school in five different states and nine different cities. I came full circle and spent my senior year of high school with the same classmates from the first grade.
I graduated on Friday night and went in the Navy on Monday morning. I was in Viet Nam in 1965/1966. When I went back to where I graduated high school, my friends were still doing the same things they did in high school. I had nothing in common with them. I spent twenty-two years in the military and rarely went back to the city where I graduated high school.
I was contacted about the fiftieth class reunion. The woman who contacted me filled me in on a few classmates with some surprises. I did not attend the reunion.
I still got all four, class of '91, along with the three from middle school. There's not much I have from HS, didn't care for most of my classmates, just wanted to get out. They make for some fun conversations every 5 years.

Mine is somewhere in a box in the attic. No clue which box. My Mom has class pics of each year of all of us kids, but where I grew up, people only actually bought the class yearbook for their Senior year. If I wanted one, I had to pay for it with my own money. Most of my classmates had to do the same.
I guess I'm in the minority... I don't have mine, and can't remember if I ever even got a high school yearbook. It just wasn't (and still isn't) important to me.
But then, I don't live anywhere near where I went to high school, and haven't been in touch with anyone from high school since early in college.
Originally posted by ARman: I got mine and I hated school, mostly an introvert and only had a few, but very close friends, which I'm still friends with a few of them. Class of '88.

Same here, '90. I have my yearbooks just because I have everything from my life in boxes waiting to mold or get thrown away when someone who cares can take the time to do it. I'm not on faceborg and couldn't care less if I never see any of my high school classmates again.
STAY COOL HAVE A GREAT SUMMER

I still have mine from '68. It was a "senior" yearbook that was provided by the seniors. We did the photos, the layout, and everything. Mine covers all classes from 9-12 at the school.
I have my tech school yearbook from '70. This was the second year the Tech was in operation and the first yearbook in its history. Again, this was done by a graduating student and a one-man operation. I took most of the pictures except the ones in which I was a 'team" member: soccer, hockey, baseball.
I only have the one from my senior year (`76). I never look at it, it just sits on a shelf. I never went to any of the reunions either. They don't even bother telling me about them anymore.

Never had one, never wanted one. Hated the whole experience to the point I won't even drive through that end of town now. Tossed the diploma and academic letter too.
Class of ‘58. Still have senior yearbook, only one I bought. Still in touch with a few old cronies in Baton Rouge. Couldn’t make 60th reunion in 2018 as I am caregiver for my wife. The last list I got in 2018 showed a lot of the class members have passed. Class was over 400 people.This message has been edited. Last edited by: ch3,
