The sun shone brightly as the 100th graduating class of Point Loma High School was presented with diplomas during a 5 p.m. ceremony on May 28.
But along with the solar glow came mischievous gusty winds that sent some caps flying off the heads of Class of 2026 members.
While it was the final event for the 383 students, it was also the end of a 34-year career for Principal David Jaffe who was applauded enthusiastically by his final class.
Each of the co-valedictorians – Janette Aziz and Ian De La Houssaye – and the salutatorian Delila Wilson stated that they will attend prestigious universities to study mechanical engineering while their peers are attending other colleges and universities, joining the military, going directly into jobs, traveling, or taking time to evaluate their options.
Congratulations to each member of the Class of 2026!
My father’s older brother, Johnny Zeluff, graduated 100 years ago. My father, George N. Zeluff Sr and his two sisters, Frances and Kathleen Zeluff also graduated in those early days. My brother, George N Zeluff Jr. and myself graduated in the mid to late ’60s. My three daughters graduated in 2000, 2003 and 2013!!!!
“Once a Pointer, always a Pointer!
Congratulations seniors
Nice family history Shannon. I graduated in 1966 and my daughter graduated exactly 40 years later. Were you in the “infamous” class of ’68?
