The Holston High Class of 1964 reunion was held on Saturday, April 27, 2024 at Holston Hills Country Club with many in attendance. The ’64 class was the first to attend the newly built school as 7th grade junior high students in 1958, and then continued through senior high till graduation in 1964.
Chilhowee, Alice Bell and Robert Huff were the three feeder elementary schools making up that 7th grade class at Holston.
Classmates came from all over for this 60th reunion: many cities throughout Tennessee were represented, plus states of Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, Louisiana, New York and Washington.
