Vancouver High School Reunions

Annual All School Reunion
1913 - 1955

The first class graduated from Vancouver High School in 1913 and the last class in 1955. After that our school became Fort Vancouver High School but remained in the same building until 1970 when the new FVHS building was completed.

An annual reunion picnic for all the classes ever graduating from VHS is held in Vancouver, WA on the third Saturday of July.
