Who's Coming 2024

Hey All ! ! What a blast last night at Whislers...How about every friday night till reunion....Anyhow,great to see all of you.

Whistlers was a blast! Squirt (Dicky), why are you in almost every photo???Princess....(Charlene)

Hi all.... last eve at Whistler\'s Inn was so wonderful ... Walking through the crowded room and seeing all your smiling faces and especially the light in your eyes … was an experience that lit up that place in me where joy resides … After so many years of not seeing each other and leading our separate lives ... having our way-ups and way-downs in life … to now after all these years reconnect as a group … opened up a sense of transcending the space between “then” and “now” …  I\'ve re-recognized in a deeper way how transforming the alternative school experience was for me … and I believe for so many of us.   I was struck by a common comment that came up in several of the individual conversations I had last eve ... the theme that reemerged multiple times was one of being unable to adequately explain your profound experience of the Alternative School to your friends, family and kids who came into your lives in the years after leaving the school.       I\'ve thought about it. Obviously, a profoundly powerful group bonding experience is not unique … but what was unique for us was that it occurred in a public school …. and what\'s even more so is that it occurred between students, teachers, volunteers, some parents and even other folks who just hung out there! … So, to talk to someone else about a “school” in that regard leaves them a bit a bewildered … because of what “school” means to them certain things just aren\'t going to compute when you explain it.    Anyway.... it is just a real joy for me to listen to you all talk about what the “school” experience uniquely means to you in the here and now of your life.  See you all in November.  :)

It was great seeing so many faces, sorry to those I did not remember. But today I looked at some the old pics and now puttings names those faces I remember. Do will all look so different today! Thanks for a great night!

Wow!!What a great time last night!It was so nice to see everybody!what really touched my heart was that even though we haven\'t seen each other for so many years we still had that bond of friendship.And we always will !I can\'t wait for November!!

 Wow, this is really cool! Although I wasn't fortunate enough to be able to attend the A-School, thanks to my Mom. I would have loved going there, but that's ok I  left Jersey for Oregon in '76 after graduating from CHS in '74. I feel a kindred spirit with all that attended. Right on , Right on is all I can say. I'm glad the reunion is open to everyone because I want to come and get in on the music jam. I'll bring my harmonica. Randy Lippincott if you are reading this thanks for turning me onto Blind Faith. Let's jam brothers! David Bliss it was great seeing you at the CHS reunion in '94 and I am glad you got the ball rolling on this.

OMG!!!  you guys have done such a great job gathering these pictures!!!  I just had a wonderful time viewing them all.

AKA-Harry -OMG - Now I feel old. LOL  I wouldn't miss this! I was there in 1976-78 with DICKIE  (Love ya,  Dickie!)   This will be so much fun!!!  

As Richard, I haven't grown up either;  for me you only stop growing, and learning when you're dead, and who knows even then.

I havent grown up yet..is that ok??? haha.kinda kidding.I cant wait to be my 10th grade self again.As i said in the photo section i posted,this IS great history coming back to life.

OK, general consensus is that will SHOULD have name tags but only if accompanied by those swirly, XRAY specs to go along...you know, the kind you found in the back of  comic books, sold by the Johnson Smith Novelty Co...actually the woopie cushions worked much better..... Keep the post's and pic's coming....wow...B

I keep trying to avoid participating but I just can't help it......HELLO I MISS YOU ALL AND THE (strange, wonderful, electric) TIMES WE SHARED! Ok I said it. Love - Sammy

woopie cushions should be handed out at the door, this would create conversation when used, and I want a name taqg so I will remember myself

who is going to spike the punch?

Welcome to the home of the Johnson Smith Company, one of the oldest catalog companies in the United States. A household name in novelties, gifts and collectibles since 1914.

Hey there !  I am really looking forward to seeing all of you and thanks for the great memories of my high school days !

we need a reel to reel 1/2" video player to play a school vids, can anyone help?

WOW............this is such a GREAT idea, and I am so looking forward to seeing all my old friends.  Some that I have not seen since I left for San Diego back in 1982.  It will be nice to see everyone all grown up.....well at least older! Thanks to the small group with the BIG hearts to get this reunion together.  The A school was such an inspiration and growing experience for me, I can't wait to see and party with all of you again!

 Hello to the Alernative School reunion people. I absolutely cannot wait for this event.... memories, memories, memories.  where to begin???  Henry the eighth  dinner party where we all dressed up and ate with our hands!! In Herman Tull's basement ! Chuck Mattern was the king !!! Does anyone have that video????  Would love to see it.  All the fun classes !! The Teachings of Don Juan, how to study the Mafia, and Edible plants. the list goes on and on.... Have a great thanksgiving to all. see you next year.

Never went to the A school but lived across the street and wished!!!! I remember all you guys! Hope you have a great time and let the "OTHERS" come. 

I wish this was happening this Thanksgiving. Can't wait to see everyone.

WE ARE GONNA HAVE-A FANFUCKINGTASTIC TIME. LETS GO CAMPING IN THE PINES OR LETS GO CAMPING ON THE DELAWARE. PUT THE VODKA IN THE WATER BOTTLE AND BRING THE ORANGE JUICE.LAY THE PADDLE OVER YOUR CANOE .SHAKE AND POOR  AHHH LOOK OUT FOR JOHN BLAIR ..HE IS ON TO US

Cindy, round here we say "Hey y'all". Great idea, unfortunately it's been thirty three years since I've been in touch with the crowd. Sounds like continueing education, I wouldn't miss it.

Greetings friends, Just talked with John Blair for about one hour, after not talking for all this time. Bob Stirnir gave me his number and I am still buzzing. Let's all get together and enjoy each other's company one more time, eh? To all of the teachers, thank you!

Since graduating from CAS I have spent the last 30 or so years chasing, loving and living my true passions and life dreams. The teachers and environment at the A school allowed me not only to ID my own sense of bliss and happiness but to live it every day as well. I almost can't wait to see everyone assembled at that school again!!! I trust a massive party will ensue, one that we have all been saving up for thirty years or more and more importantly, one that will rekindle new "old" relationships from here on in.

Hey all!!! This event will surely be exciting and nostalgic. Looking forward to talking to friends, and mentors of the past. C ya soon.......

Cant wait..Im still called Dickie by the people that know me from the past.Was lucky enough to have my 10th grade year with the orig. staff.Doing my best to track down students from the same year.The Longs,Judy,Charlet,Pete&steve,Joe Volpe(verp)etc.etc.

Part of the A school from 75-77. All hadchanged in 76-77. Dottie B (something) took over and it was never the same. I was lucky enough to stare at the stars with John, learn to crochet an afgan in art with Ray, still sit in a school chair in business math with Lori and learn about the Mobs with Kyra,  learn how to be a creative writer with Jack and of course -Volley Ball with Franny ( I still play in the womens league in Cinnaminson).  Met the love of my life there and married him 25 years ago - Bill Myhre

While not a graduate (moved from Cinna. before the A-school opened), I was friends with many and have fond memories of hanging around the A-School (& Woodpark after hours). Looking forward to the reunion (I'll be with JD).

this is great

I am truly sorry that I will not be able to attend this event. Thanksgiving always happens here at my house for my family, who travel in from the east and northwest, as well as northern California. I am especially sorry to miss seeing the entire faculty. Please take tons of photos for those of us who cannot be present. That was a terrific place to spend my high school years.

Sounds great!  Hope that I can make it!  Love the webpage:  great work.  -- Nancy

love to come. let me know if you need any help

The inspiration for this came to Jeanie and me on a long car ride back from Ithaca NY (one scene on the '73 college tour) to our home in Melrose MA. We got to talking about the 2 "Class of 74" reunions and how there were far too few A-Schoolers there. We brainstormed and came up with an initial list and took it as far as we could. Thanks to Bob and Bob for picking this up beyond belief!

Thanks to the Bob's & Dave for all your hardwork. I'm afraid I may need nametags, with large type. See you next year.

This is great. I'm happy to help in any way. Please don't hesitate to ask.

Greetings friends! Looking forward to seeing everyone.                                 JD

Hello everyone!  It's been too long.  Looking forward to seeing everybody.  Cheers, Bob
