RIHS Class of '96: 30-Year Reunion

RIHS Class of '96: 30-Year Reunion

It’s time to get the 411 and trip down memory lane at the RIHS Class of '96: 30-Year Reunion.

We are gonna party like it's the 90s, for real! Come rocked out in your flannels or fly neon swag.

To Principal Anderson and the administration crew: roll through and drinks are on us. It’s total props for triggering the biggest food fight in Rocky history—even if you did totally buzzkill us by enforcing closed campus lunch right after! We forgive you and we do owe you one.

Come dressed in 90s theme to qualify for a best dressed prize. Doc Martins or Jordan X's highly encouraged but not requered for entry.

Decades after walking the stage, the alumni network remains connected through active local communities and the Rock Island High School Memorial Group. Celebrating 30 years of history, the Class of 1996 continues to honor its roots by organizing milestone reunions that bring classmates and former school faculty back together to celebrate their shared legacy.

Kavanaugh's Hilltop Bar & Grill: A long-running neighborhood staple located in the College Hill District of Rock Island. While it features a prominent, 1,300-square-foot union-built covered patio and outdoor deck area rather than a traditional high-rise rooftop, this elevated outdoor space is a central hub for local nightlife. The patio is highly regarded for its vibrant, casual atmosphere, featuring live music performances, a 120-inch projection screen for sports viewing, and outdoor bar games like bags. Elevating the pub experience, the kitchen is operated by Chef Kevin Wiggins of Chevin’s Kitchen and Catering, who serves up an acclaimed menu featuring signature double smash burgers, salmon caesar ciabatta, and hot honey chicken melts. Alongside these fresh-made dishes, visitors can enjoy a rotating selection of craft beer and daily drink specials.
