Bluffton Kindergartners' 2002 Christmas concert

It was 2002 and Bluffton Kindergartners were probably singing "All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth." That makes this group either the Bluffton HS graduating class of 2015 or 2016.

As for historic, we consider any photo where we've lost track of who is in the photo as entering the historical realm. Even so, we've spotted some students who we've recognized.

We welcome viewers to offer identification of any student pictured.
