Wilson High School
Class of 1961 |
The class of 1961 was the first to attend the new Wilson High School for all three years. Our class helped select the school song, mascot, colors and so many other things. This was a very exciting time and we had a srtong and successful school from the start.
We had nearly 500 who graduated in our class. Our classmates have kept in touch and enjoyed reunions almost every five years.
