Welcome to the South Western Senior High Class Of 1961 web site. We are proud to be the first graduating class of South Western Senior High School. Try to remember the anticipation you felt as you were about to enter the doors of this beautiful new school in September 1959. We hope this website brings back some fond memories of your two years at South Western.

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we have decided to CANCEL our 59 Year Reunion at Inn 94 on Thursday, September 17, 2020. We hope to be able to celebrate our 60th Reunion in 2021.

Special thanks to the class members who made donations to enable us to extend our website for an additional three (3) years for $385, a savings of $110. We will not need to ask for donations until September 2023. At that time I will be 80 years old and we might want to consider shutting the website.down. But I do feel this has been very useful.

Speaking of useful, I'm happy to THANK those of you who took the time to respond to my request to send uplifting messages to Darlene Miller Harbaugh during her final struggle. She was thrilled with all the cards and messages she received. (She has a box ful!.) She sent me a card and thanked me for initiating that. After that I called her and we had  a nice chat. She sounds great and has accepted this is the path God has chosen for her. Your messages made her extremely happy.
