- Get all of your classmates contact information before graduation (especially email addresses - preferably a gmail/hotmail/yahoo account; not a school or subscriber account that can change when they move), also get a parents email.
- Gather memorabilia, copy of yearkbook(s), etc. for a Memory Box or Time Capsule to be opened at future reunions; have students write a letter to their future selves to be included in time capsule.
