This is video from November 2009 in three parts of the 50th Anniversary Reunion celebration by the Passaic High School Class of 1959 at the Brownstone Restaurant in Paterson, N.J. on Friday November 20, 2009. Scenes from Passaic schools, parks, and buildings are included. A gathering at Passaic High School Auditorium including comments by the current Principal, Carl Creech is included.
