Our Journey

From Holte High School to Today

We were the class that grew up in a time of change and possibility. The early 1970s shaped who we were—from the music that moved us to the movements that inspired us. We walked the halls of Holte High School during a unique moment in history.

Our senior year in 1975 was unforgettable. We cheered at football games, performed in school plays, studied late for exams, and made memories that would last a lifetime. We were there for each other through first loves, heartbreaks, triumphs, and challenges.

Now, five decades later, we remain connected by the bonds we formed during those formative years. Though our paths have taken us in different directions—across the country and around the world—the friendships we built at Holte High School remain as strong as ever.

The Times

Growing Up in the Seventies

The world was changing around us, and we were right in the middle of it all

1971

Freshman Year

We entered Holte High School as wide-eyed freshmen, navigating lockers, new friends, and the excitement of high school life. The world was watching the moon landings' legacy and listening to The Beatles.

1972

Sophomore Year

Finding our groove and our identity. School dances, homecoming games, and discovering what we were passionate about. Led Zeppelin and Elton John dominated our radios.

1973

Junior Year

The year we really came into our own. Prom preparations, SAT tests, and thinking about the future. We watched Watergate unfold and debated what it all meant.

1974

Senior Year Begins

We ruled the school! Homecoming, college applications, yearbook photos, and savoring every moment. This was our time, and we knew it wouldn't last forever.

Graduation Day

The culmination of four incredible years. Caps flew, tears flowed, and we stepped into the world ready to make our mark. We were the Class of '75!
