Saying Good Bye To High School

Tweet

Thursday June 10,2021 is G.A.R. Memorial High School in Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania last day as a high school. After that it will function as a junior high school. Many generations have entered the school as young boys and girls who knew nothing about life and how to live. They learned the lessons of life and graduated as young men and women who were ready for life and eager to be contributing members of society Stephen Morio from the class of 1982 has put out a call to his fellow Grenadiers. And, when a GAR Memorial High School alum like Morio, who loves the “bleeds blue and gray,” sends a message, people listen. On Thursday at 11 a.m., the last class of seniors will graduate from GAR High School in Wilkes-Barre. Morio recently started a social media campaign to urge GAR alumni of every age, from every class, to gather at the school to parade and pay tribute to their alma mater. “It’s mostly spreading through Facebook and word of mouth,” Morio said, explaining he’s invited people to gather “on the turf” of the athletic field outside the school by 9:30 a.m. Source:
