Welcome to the official site of the Anchorage High School Class of '61 Reunion Committee, your portal to news and information relating to the Class of 1961!

We in the Class of '61 have the proud distinction of being the last graduating class from Anchorage High School. East Anchorage High School opened in the fall of 1961 and our school became known as West Anchorage High School.

This website, designed for our special class, is and will remain a work in progress. We will be adding and expanding material on a regular and frequent basis. If you have any photos, remembrances, anecdotes, contact information for one or more of our missing classmates, corrections or suggestions, please let us know, or sign up and add photos/entries to our Class of '61 Blog. This is your website.

Lyrics:
On the Anchor,
On the Anchor,
Hail old Anchorage High.
Loyal hearts forever praise thee,
Loud the chorus rings
Rah, Rah, Rah

On the Anchor,
On the Anchor,
Echoes to the sky.
Hail fellows, ever hail
Old Anchorage High
