This site was created to connect and re-connect with our classmates (even those who may not be attending the reunions). We want to make this site a scrapbook of memories for all classmates and their families. Rest assured, the site is private!
Everything you need to know about setting up a profile to gain access to the rest of our site is on this page. If you have questions, please contact us at centralcatholic68@gmail.com. Several people are monitoring this email address and will get back to you as quickly as possible.

Your contact information is private. You have the ability to limit the visibility of your profile to only fellow classmates by clicking on the appropriate answer in the Profile Visibility section during profile setup. If you do not opt for privacy on this line your profile may be viewed by non members such as your friends or family, but also note your profile will be fully indexable by major search engines.
Finding your class web site Profile pages by searching Google or other major search engines:
- If you are signed on to the site and restricted your profile to only fellow classmates, and then use a search engine to see if the privacy options above are working, it will appear they are NOT.

Emails are not shared within this site. If you want to reach out to a classmate for whom you don't have an email, go to their profile page and click on the link below their picture. They will get an email

Our site is restricted to members only. You must set up your profile by providing your email address, and a password at minimum.
To set up your profile: locate the "Classmate Profiles" link. Locate your name and click on it. Follow the prompts to create your profile.
Private information like your email address, home address, and phone numbers will not be visible to fellow classmates. We collect mailing addresses in the event that we need to contact you by snail mail or phone. Your information will never be given to other classmates without your permission.
We encourage you to add a current picture to your profile as a master photo. This photo will be displayed in various areas around the site. It's also helpful to upload an additional "Now" photo, and a "Then" photo. Classmates will enjoy seeing how you've changed!
If your name is not already on the site, but you were part of the Central Catholic High School Class of 1968 or are a survinvg spouse of a deceased classmate, contact us and we'll add you.
Update: If you change your email address, snail mail address, or phone number, please update your Contact Info so we have up to date information. That way you'll always be in the know about what your classmates are up to!
Passwords:
Choose something that you are certain to remember. Clicking the "Remember Me" will allow you to bypass entering the password each time you visit, but eventually the "remember me" will fail (for instance when you get a new computer). Please make note of your password!
If you forget your password simply click on "forgot password" or contact us at centralcatholic68@gmail.com.

The wonderful part about this site is that it came pre-setup by Class Creator. We just had to enter names we received from the Alumni office at CCHS. If we don't have an address or email for someone, they are automatically added to the "Missing Classmates" list.
We need your help to contact EVERY classmate. If you have information about any classmate, listed or not listed, please contact us at centralcatholic68@gmail.com.
To contact a fellow classmate, you can use the "Send Priovate message" option. There is a link under the Master Photo. This feature will allow open communication between Classmates, while protecting your personal information. If you wish to share your email address or other personal information within a message written on our site, the site will not block you from doing so.
Adding current pictures is not a requirement to participate on the site, but it certainly is a nice way to get to know people again. We've had reports of classmates who were routinely running into each other without knowing it, because...well....we've all changed a little over the years!
