Pennsbury Class Of 1970 Holds High School Reunion

FALLSINGTON, PA —The Pennsbury High School Class of 1970 finally got the chance to celebrate their 50th reunion.

But the celebration didn't happen until just recently.

The pandemic put a damper on reunion plans twice, but the group finally connected earlier this month and reminisced about their time at Pennsbury High School, school officials said.

Alumni and invited guests met at Pennsbury High School East and walked the halls, led by Schools Superintendent Thomas Smith, Student Council President Gavin Kuebler, and senior Lizzy Burnell.

After the tour, the group headed to the auditorium, where Smith provided an update on the state of the school district and plans for the future.

The tour ended with a stop at the school store to purchase Pennsbury gear.

The Class of 1970 later celebrated with their classmates at Westaby Hall in Fairless Hills.
