Dig out old photos, class composites & other nostalgia
We’re looking for K-7th yearbook images from all the schools: Moorefield, Plattsburg, Catawba, Westside, South Vienna, and Northridge. Try siblings and friends from other classes who’d have old yearbooks. Capture the images and send in here. Easily upload your images below:

As we get photos we’ll start posting them. Don’t worry, overly embarrassing photos won’t make the cut here.
A tease of past images
A rotation of shots, circa 2010, 2015, 2020:
From the 1955-56 NEHS Yearbook:















































Attention Yearbook Staff!
Surely you got some shots that didn’t make the yearbooks, right?
Tell us you still have them!? Upload them to us, PLEASE!
Or else bring them to the reunion!

Every school building is gone EXCEPT Westside and what’s left of 1899’s Plattsburg High School:



What if ALL the 1955 proposed schools in Northridge had been built? High, elementary and parochial schools
A proposal (below) for Northridge had elementary and high schools, a parochial school, six churches, two playgrounds, a wooded park, and shopping center. Note the “1956 House of Enchantment.” The “1956 Parade of Homes” would have included houses of two classmates and a Northridge teacher. Do you know who?
Answer: Randy Smith, Frank Vawter, and that infamous Mrs. Purdy.
