Funny story! Lisa Nunlist of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, found this class ring from "Finley HS." She contacted us, wondering if it could be from one of our former students. (There is, however, another Finley HS in the state of Washington.) Although we are not finding records of a student with the initials WO from possibly "36", we thought we'd ask YOU if you would have an idea of who this may have belonged to...if they graduated from here. We know it's a long shot, but it would be fun to find the owner or their family, if it is from our school. Call us at 701 524-2420, if you have any information. Thanks!
