Thomas Jefferson High School Class of 1985 Reunion Page

04/30/2026

Surprise visit today by Jason Barrios (can’t tag, not on FB) so took him to see the new landscaping in front of the school. That’s Jason and Tim Keeports sitting out front some 44 years since starting in 1982…

If you’ve not been past recently, there is new marquee sign lighting and extensive landscape improvements. The propeller in front of the school was also recently repainted in the school colors via a donation from the Westshore Alliance Business District.

FYI: On Oct 24th, the Jefferson High School all years reunion will be held at the school.

This is a separate event and group from the 1985 Class, but we want to share as any grad is welcome to join and attend.

Wow -- tomorrow's the reunion weekend!

One change: Hotel Haya opened the Roosevelt Room for our group. It is a private space directly across from the restaurant bar.
