It has been raining since yesterday but was not so cold.
This morning I noticed there was almuni news letter of my high school in the mailbox. It must be delivered sometime yesterday but I did not notice.
I checked the newsletter after coming back home.
There are many articles in 18 pages including historical issue, recent news, and many pictures of reunions.
Our high school has more than 108 years history. Classes have not changed for three years. So if you were in a good class, friendship will last forever.
Class period was 70 minutes each when I was a high school students. This was rather long for high school, but it was a good transition to college period which usually lasts for 90 minutes.
First it was a junior high school, and later it became a high school.
According to the reuion report, 34th junior high school graduates celebrated beiju (米寿), 88 years old together.
33rd junior high school graduates celebrated their 70 years after graduation.
16th high school graduates celebrated their koki (古稀) 70th birthdays.
Soft tennis club celebrated its 100 years foundation.
We, 33rd, high school graduates got together after 33 years from graduation in March 2014. There were 10 classes with 45 students each in total of 450 students when we were students. And at that grand reunion there were about 200 students. This was the first time for us to have a grand reunion. We are planning to have it every four years now.
I was lucky to have been in a good class, so we often have petite class reunions and some are connected by Facebook.
