Other Activities


Although many of you have been on Facebook for sometime now, it seems more and more of us have found our way there. To help find our classmates there are two specific groups you will want to join on Facebook. The first group is the Choctawhatchee Senior High School Class of 1981 and the second group is Choctawhatchee Alumni

We are currently working on the next Reunion to occur in 2011!
The Reunion discussion takes place on the ChoctawClassof81 Reunion2011 group.

Important post will be made here on our website as decisions and plans are made for the Reunion.

We are always looking for input on the next Reunion, so let us hear from you!
