Austin High School Class of 1969
Stephen F. Austin High School, Austin, Texas
|
The Class of '69 attended the old Austin High location on the corner of 12th and Rio Grande. We
were within walking distance of the Capitol, downtown, and the University. The foreword to the 1962
Comet included these thoughts:
Two thousand students, caught up in the hustle of school activities, pass through the halls
of Stephen F. Austin each day. These students are citizens of a miniature community, aware
usually of only the academic and social life of the school and not of the surrounding, larger
community. Yet the school and the city of Austin are closely related.... The impressions we
have gained, the friendships we have made, and the knowledge we have accumulated in the
community of Austin High will be carried to wider realms in the future when we are adult
citizens of Austin.
