About - Gorton

Gorton included 2 Junior Kindergarten Classes (AM and PM), 2 full-day Kindergarten Classes and grades 1st through 6th.

 

Upon “graduating” from Kindergarten, 60% continued attending Gorton, 30% moved to Sheridan and 2 moved to St Mary’s including our very own Pattie Bussone.

 

We have all 17 class pictures that were taken as well as 2 Halloween pictures that were taken in 1955 that included kids of different ages and from different schools.

 

As you will see in the Legends that follow each picture and the summary below, we have 46 Unidentified classmates – If you have some spare time, we would appreciate any thoughts you might have regarding our Unidentified Classmates – Thanks!
