Rural high school class reunions offer a unique experience that can’t be duplicated by larger districts. With graduating classes numbering in the double digits, an intimacy that draws the whole community in, and a “the more the merrier” attitude prevails. The class year takes back seat to the school and the town the graduate came from.Claflin’s All School Reunion will include a full slate of activities Saturday and Sunday.
