John Peacock I would have graduated in the class of 1945, but just as WWII broke out we moved to San Diego and I graduated from high school there. In 1990 I made a rare trip back to Mt Pleasant and discovered that a reunion of the class of '45 was being held so I attended and was surprised to find so many who remembered me. I knew practically everyone in attendance, many of whom have since died. I am surprised that none from that class have responded to this page. Hopefully some will soon.

I also remember dancing at the Cinco de Mayo celebration with other students from Mrs. Wahlert's Spanish class. And the trip that we made to San Antonio was great!

The one that sticks out best in my mind is the following: In yearbook class, we were given passes to go & sell yearbook ads to the public for a few days out of the year...Well, not only did I keep my pass, I found an extra for Kaycee Moreland. We would walk out of yearbook pretending to go work elsewhere, would hop in my car, and we were outta there! We would come back to school 2 or 3 hours later. This happened almost on a daily basis. We had to hide out from the parents and while out, many times ran into Garrett Redfearn & Travis Prefeirt @ El Chicos. Fun times. Hope you all are doing well! Please email me & let me hear from you: jenmccauley@yahoo.com

Damon McCullar My favorite memory of High School was being Drum Major of the Goin' Gold Band for my junior and senior years. It was a lot of work, but well worth it. I have a lot of pleasant memories from those years and the lessons I learned there have carried through my life since. Also, I cherish the memories of some of my educators. George Leonburger is the one that comes to mind. He is the best educator that I have ever met in my life and he also taught me a lot about life.

Despite all the hell that was to follow-it was quite worth it. And of course the new and improved rendition of Great Balls of Fire done by Garrett Redfearn, Jeff Clark and Clay Harrell was unforgetable!! Sure doesn't feel like 5 years that's for sure.
