Cottage Grove High School
graduated its bicentennial, Class
of ’76 Sunday at the school’s
Currin Field. The crowd that
turned out to watch the class go
through its last function together
packed the covered grandstand
and spilled over onto the foot-
ball fi eld. Class members were
quiet and reserved throughout
the graduation ceremonies, until
Superintendent Ray Mullen in-
troduced the class. Mr. Mullen’s
introduction was greeted with
blasts of fi recrackers and a roar
of applause and cheers from
the members of the class. The
school’s bicentennial class did
not go out quietly (in keeping
with the tradition the senior’s
set during their fi nal year). The
seniors helped make up one of
the school’s best football teams
in many years, sent award-win-
ning bands and choirs around
the state and turned in a record
of academic achievement as
well.
