Alumni who graduated from a Baltimore-area high school had their 70th high school reunion this week.

According to ABC2News, “there was no DJ or after party, because that would be cutting into the afternoon nap.” The ABC reporter added: “They said they recited the Pledge of Allegiance before each day, and if a young lady wore slacks, the principal would send her home.”

Another woman, who was called the “best-looking girl” in class, said that “underneath the school was a gun range.”

And even more impressively, two high school sweethearts who got married 68 years ago still are married, and they attended the reunion.

They also went through the old yearbook.
