I got all excited because my SO went to Walt Whitman HS…
…
Only in Long Island, NY.
I went to (shudder) John Jay HS, Fishkill NY. Graduated in '93 but really it’s the class of '94 that would know me better as I graduated a year early.

Sub-Freshman\* (Eighth Grade) and Freshman at Towers High School in Atlanta.
Pinellas Park HS, Florida
Class of 1980
\*Back in the day the schools in Atlanta were 1-7 for Elementary, 8-12 in High School. I assume this has changed; anyone know if so and when?

West Ottawa High School in Holland, MI - 1999
I see a lot of representation from the east side of the state, but apparently over on the west all we were good for was Klompen dancing.
So nobody has any matches yet, huh?

Elliott County (KY) High School, Class of 1982
Its only claim to fame is being the Alma Mater of Keith Whitley, although it was called Sandy Hook High School at the time. In his video of Homecoming '63 you see a banner that says Sandy Hook High School.

I was at Parkville Junior/Senior High School in Baltimore, Maryland, and if I would have graduated, it would have been Class of 1985.
However, I got a wild hair up my butt and jockied 1200 miles across the country and went for two months to Charles Page High School in Sand Springs, Oklahoma. Hated every single minute of it, and dropped out.

It is a pretty sizable Michi-doper delegation. 🙂 Count me in for the middle of the state.
Grand Ledge High School in Grand Ledge, MI - 2003.
My brother was on the football team when they played West Ottawa last year in the playoffs. For the record, West Ottawa beat Grand Ledge. ☹
I actually play tennis with a girl who graduated from Monroe like **tsarina** and **Juniper200** , although she was probably class of 2000.

St. Francis High School, home of the Wyverns at the corner of Third and Broadway, Louisville, Ky, 1981 (and don’t talk to me about being old - I don’t act like it). I will be shocked, _shocked!_ if there are any matches. There were only 37 in my graduating class, and I haven’t seen any of them at all save one (the headmaster’s son). There were only 125 in the entire school at that time, so there were relatively few who knew or would remember me.
