1953
This annual, the 1953 Milestones, is brought to you in the hope that
through the years it will serve as a constant reminder of our wonderful
days at Kings Mountain High School.
“When Time who steals our years away
Shall steal our pleasures too.
The mem’ry of the past will stay.
And half our joys renew.”—Moore
