If you want to revisit those old alumni letters and pictures, then just click here: Old Alumni Letter. Some of the older pictures are not included. And remember some of these letters are nearly a decade old...people have moved on (except me and Griffing.)
Once upon a time, we all graduated from South High...here are some of those pictures: Graduation Pictures
Hey Alumni...I know none of you are ever going to run Track again. Well we need your old track spikes. The new kids use the old spike shoes all the time, but we're limited on shoe sizes. Bring them by 6th period and say hi...if you don't remember, 6th period in high school starts at 2:10 each day. Put your name on them, Graduation year, and best marks.
Don't throw your spikes away...we need them!!
