As I recall, the highlight game of the four homecoming games was when we actually scored on the Rockford football team. Then we found out that they hadn’t even bothered to send their first string to play us. It’s a good thing I didn’t give a rat’s ass about football. Or maybe that’s why.

Oh man, things must have changed! Grand Ledge actually ended up losing to West Ottawa in the State quarterfinals, which means, IIRC, that they had already won 3 playoff games. Not too bad for the alma maters…

I never really liked watching Grand Ledge play until my brother started. He’s graduating this year, so I can stop caring again.[/hijack]

My daughter goes there, and will graduate next year. **FairyChatMom** went there, too, but I know she graduated sometime in the 70s.

As for me, I went to Towson High, class of '82.

[Palisades High School](http://www.lausd.k12.ca.us/Palisades_Charter_HS/)

Pacific Palisades, CA

Class of 1976

Actually a very famous school - you’ll see the school in lots of movies including the recent _Freaky Friday_, and the soft-porn 70s flick _The Cheerleaders_. We had a lot of celebrity’s kids in our class, such as Sean Cassidy, the son of Ted Cassidy (“Lurch”), Teresa Laughlin, the daughter of Tom Laughlin (“Billy Jack”) and now a fine actress in her own right, Kiki Vandeweghe, the son of basketball great Ernie Vandeweghe and now general manager of the Denver Nuggets, and a couple of classmates went on to stardom in their own right, including Susanna Hoffs, lead singer of _The Bangles_.

Now…I DID see a UniHi (University High) 1975 graduate in this illustrious crowd, they were our crosstown rivals. :rolleyes:
