ALBION HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 1974 HARRINGTON SCHOOL PHOTO

The summer months is the time for Albion High School class reunions. I’d like to suggest that you have copies of my Albion history books at your event as they are full of memorable photographs. "Growing Up in Albion" and "Albion in Review" are the most popular. Contact me at (517) 629-5402, or Albionfp@hotmail.com for further information.

This year the Albion High School class of 1974 will be celebrating its 40th anniversary. Recently I acquired the scrapbook of Harrington School teacher Kathryn Robinson, who taught 1st grade there in the 1960s and 1970s. She kept a copy of the class photographs and identified the students. From our Historical Notebook this week we present the 1962-63 1st grade class taught by Mrs. Robinson, which would have been part of the AHS class of 1974. How many of them do you recognize?
