Class Pages

Golden Class gallery

Explore individual class pages for the Golden Class years (1970–1980). Class of 1976 highlighted as this year’s primary anniversary class.

Source Content Issues Preserved

Missing Class of 1975: The source Golden Class Gallery lists years 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974, then jumps directly to 1976, followed by 1977–1980. Class of 1975 (51st anniversary in 2026) is conspicuously absent — rebuild displays a dashed-outline placeholder marking this omission for the content team’s attention.

Additional CMS Issue: All 10 class links in the source Gallery point to # (dead anchors) — no per-class landing pages currently exist. Rebuild preserves gallery structure with placeholder navigation until per-class pages are created.
