DeSoto, Texas
Limited Edition v.30
Join your classmates as we reconnect, reminisce, laugh about the good old days, and celebrate the journeys we’ve taken since graduation. Whether we’ve stayed connected or haven’t seen each other since walking across the stage in 1996, this reunion is for all of us.
Dust off your favorite memories, grab your classmates, and get ready for an unforgettable weekend filled with fellowship, food, music, and fun.
Celebrating 30 Years of Memories!
Thirty years ago, we were making memories in the hallways, at football & basketball games, pep rallies, dances, and graduation ceremonies.
Today, we’re parents, grandparents, entrepreneurs, educators, executives, community leaders, and difference-makers. This reunion is an opportunity to celebrate where we’ve been, where we are, and where we’re headed.
Come reconnect with old friends, make new memories, and relive the spirit of the Class of 1996.
