In recognition of approaching graduation ceremonies, the Republican will present a glimpse of ceremonies of the past, including this shot at the 1978 Rensselaer Central High School ceremony in the gymnasium. The school’s yearbook, Chaos, failed to provide identity for persons in the picture above. If you know who they are, please call us at 866-5111 or e-mail us at daily@rensselaerrepublican.com and we’ll provide the answer to this question in next week’s Peek at the Past. Photo from chaos.
