Our History
It was June 1968, and one of the largest graduating classes in Cuyahoga Falls High School history was prepared for graduation in ceremonies held at The Cathedral of Tomorrow on State Road.
1968 was a year of turmoil in our country - the Vietnam war was raging and every guy had his draft card. We all were concerned over college choices, career paths, and the possibility of leaving our homes and community - perhaps forever - loomed in our thoughts. We would be separated from friends we had grown up with, and didn't yet realize the wisdom and challenge of our class motto "In Ourselves Our Future Lies".
It's been almost 55 years since that time. We've all gone our separate ways, married, divorced, raised families, have grandchildren and for some, great grandchildren. Some of us have retired, some are at the peak of our careers. We live all over the United States, and even the world. And tragically, too many already have passed on.
The one thing each of us has, in spite of our separation of time and distance, is the fact that we are the CLASS OF 1968! Undoubtedly one of the best remembered and most loyal class ever to grace the halls and classrooms of Falls High. We are Black Tigers - forever!
We displayed that unity at our 50th reunion in 2018; an event that none of us that attended will ever forget. Friendships were renewed, and new friendships were created. A gathering to celebrate and to remember our youth.
