"This is an Official Website of the South Pasadena High School Alumni Association".
COMPLETELY FREE TO ALL OF OUR ALUMNI! You will never be asked to pay to make a profile or to be able to access other alumni profiles.
YOUR ONLY REQUIREMENT TO PARTICIPATE: is to provide all of your contact information, but you can CHECK "profile visibility" and UNCHECK "contact details" at the bottom of your profile page, to keep them private. Please enter your complete home mailing address including zip code and your telephone number. [...even if you are outside of the U.S.] If in the U.S.A. you will receive a FREE annual copy of Tiger News the next time it is mailed.
ONLY 4-STEPS TO JOIN US:
1) First click on the Classes & Classmates link, located at the top left of any page. It will take you to a page with all the "Class Years".
2) Find your year of graduation and click on it. The next page will have your classmate names, including yours.
3) Find your name and click on it. You will see "JOIN HERE" and right below it you will see "Click Here Now to complete your Profile".
4) Follow the prompts to create your Profile. The password that you create and enter during this process will be used as your Log On password.
Personalize Your Own Page with information such as: what you have been up to since graduation, school memories, your family, and photos. You can also add music to this page.
IMPORTANT! Please do two things as soon as you register:
1) On the left side menu find the area called "Member Functions". Find Edit Profile and click on it. The next page is your profile page. At the bottom of this page check mark "Profile Visibility". This will block Google and other Web Search Engines from making your page information viewable to the general public. If you want anyone other than registered SPHS alumni to have access to your page you can leave it unchecked.
Once you create a Profile, you will also be able to see the profiles of your fellow classmates and interact with them.
2) Whitelist Noreply@ClassCreator.net.

Does Class Creator rent, sell, or in any way profit from having our Classmates' names, addresses, and personal information? How does it make its money?
No. Class Creator does not rent or sell any Classmate information or engage in any marketing or solicitation to Classmates. All personal contact information is held strictly confidential. Class Creator does not sell advertising on the website or display banner ads or pop-up windows. Class Creator does sell domain name registrations to Classes through its ClassNames.net subsidiary for $19 per year, but using that service is optional. This website is owned by our Alumni Association--not by Class Creator. Some classes have their own personal website they built using the ClassCreator system.
What is the purpose of this website?
This site has been created for three purposes. 1) It connects all alumni that do not have a class website with their classmates in order to have reunions. 2) It re-establishes old friendships. Anyone that graduated in a particular year may want to reconnect with others even if they are not planning to attend an upcoming reunion. This gives those individuals that option. 3) It encourages alumni to join and support the South Pasadena High School Alumni Association.
Can I join the site even if I don't plan attend the reunion?
Yes. Even if you do not plan to attend upcoming reunions, it is hoped that there are old friends on this site that you would like to reconnect with and for that purpose you can still join the site.
Can I volunteer to help with the reunion?
Yes. Volunteers will be necessary to make sure that your reunion is a success.
