I attended Cavecreek Elementary School in 1967 as a 7th grader. If I recall, that was the highest grade for the school at the time. The teachers name was Mr. Dale Holo.
We were living in Ft. Lauderdale for the 1969-1970 school year.
I attended Platte Canyon School in Bailey, Colorado for the 1970-71 school year (10th grade).
We moved to Reno, Nevada where I attended Hug HighSchool for the 1971-72 School year (11th grade) and our final move was to Carson City, Nevada where I was attending Carson City HighSchool (senior year) at the time I joined the Navy in Sept. 1972. I would have been in the graduating class of 1973.
