No Juntos was printed for 1972 — or none survives; the copy the archive catalogues as 1972 is the 1971 book scanned again. The class is known two ways: the South Texas Archives keeps a graduation portrait of each of its 20 graduates in the school's photo file, shown here with the archive's watermark, and Juntos 1971 printed them a year earlier as the Median Form. Nothing else was printed: no hometowns, no activities, no quotes.

Started with this class, left before 1971
29 · not at the school in 1972Printed as freshmen, sophomores or juniors of the Class of 1972 in the books before 1971, then not in 1971 at all — they left before their senior year, or finished school somewhere else. Each card says the last year they were printed; the face is the one beside their name.
