  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
50th anniversary of the 1976 graduating class of Talladega High School 
in Talladega, Alabama.
  Members from the 1976 class, including many of their former teachers 
and coaches, will gather for a reunion banquet on Saturday, August 15th 
in Talladega. Fifty years ago, 200 members of this class proudly walked 
across the stage, marking the culmination of years of dedication, 
learning and friendship. This 50th reunion is a moment to reflect on 
cherished memories, honor those who have passed away and celebrate the 
remarkable journeys of each class member.
  The members of this distinguished class have, over the past five 
decades, contributed greatly to their families, communities, 
professions and to the betterment of society; and the

bonds formed within the halls of Talladega High School have endured the 
test of time, serving as a testament to the strength of shared 
experiences, mutual respect and lifelong friendship.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in wishing the 1976 graduates of 
Talladega High School congratulations on this milestone and a wonderful 
celebration in August.
