🌟🌍 Homecoming at ASFG: 50 Years of Memories Relived! The Class of ’73, who once called ASFG their second home, returned for an emotional 50-year reunion. Most of them are now scattered around the world, but they came back to the place where their lifelong journey began. The day was filled with heartwarming moments. They explored the familiar campus during a tour, savored a delightful taquiza, and shared memories that spanned half a century. Yearbook anecdotes and cherished stories brought smiles and tears as they interacted with our current students. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Fabiola Lira, our dedicated Alumni Coordinator, who made this unforgettable event possible. Her efforts ensure that ASFG alumni always come back with open arms to their alma mater. Thank you for a fantastic memory recollection and an event that words can’t describe. The ASFG family remains strong and timeless. 🎓
