The writer recalls the first and perhaps only high school reunion of the Ames High class. He notes the lazy but humorous crowd, the unrecognized arrivals, and the awkward yet fond moments including cousins and a newborn grandchild reveal. He reflects on shared pasts, mutual acceptance, and gratitude for formative peers.
Education writer argues tests show broad decline across all groups and calls for core reading, writing practice, and disciplined language study. He urges daily impromptu writing, repeated critique, and parental letters to students to sharpen vocabulary and thought for stronger future civic life.
