Graduation Day Brings On “End” On June 7, 1981, Oliver P. Morton Senior High School graduated 344 students, which on that day became the official “Class of 1981”. Graduation Day marked an end for each student in the Class of 1981 to what was so much of each students life. The classes, homework, grades, and the teachers, administrators, and parents pushing education came to an abrupt halt. What some students consider as “the good times” — friendship, dates, parties, dances, going to athletic events — also came to an end. Many students took the time to reflect and say good-bye and good luck. Some students seem to concentrate on “What do I do now?” since the end of high school also signals a new beginning. The ceremonies on that day did not vary much from any other ceremony of the past, except for one most important fact — for the 344 students, June 7, 1981, is one day that will be remembered forever.
