Reunion News:
Class of 1980: Every time the SHS Class of 1980 holds their reunion the class has historically made a financial donation to a group or organization benefiting Somerville High School. For their last few reunions, the Best Buddy Program at Somerville High school has received a financial gift from the class and although it’s been over 45 years since they hallowed the halls of Somerville High School the classmates are dedicated to giving back to their Alma Mater and this past reunion was no exception.
Upcoming Reunions:
Class of 2001: 25th Reunion, Saturday November 28, 7:00 PM at the Great American Beer Hall. Admission is free. See graphic below, all Class of 2001 members are encouraged to attend.
