Class of 1984 Circle Challenge

Class of 1984! It has been forty-one years since you graduated as proud Quincy Blue Devils, stepping into a world undergoing significant change. Now, you have the opportunity to come together once again—not just to reflect on your shared past, but to build a lasting legacy.

Through the Class Circles Challenge, your class can raise $10,000 to establish a permanent endowed fund—your Class Circle—that will support Quincy Public Schools students for generations to come. This fund will provide critical resources for technology access, arts and music education, mental health services, athletics, and college and career readiness—ensuring every Blue Devil has the opportunity to thrive.

Your Class Circle Fund is just beginning, and it starts with you and your classmates. Every donation helps lay a strong foundation. Each gift strengthens the fund and expands its long-term impact—building a more supportive school system where students, educators, and the entire QPS community are empowered to help young people succeed. It’s a meaningful way to give back to the community that helped shape your journey.

Your senior year was filled with leadership, creativity, and unforgettable moments. Whether on the field, on stage, in the classroom, or through service, the Class of 1984 made a lasting impact on Quincy High School. You embraced the spirit of the times—demonstrating resilience, innovation, and a deep sense of community. Your contributions helped shape the culture and traditions that continue to define the Blue Devil experience today.

The world you stepped into after graduation was rapidly evolving. In 1984, the Apple Macintosh debuted, ushering in a new era of personal computing. The Summer Olympics in Los Angeles showcased athletic excellence despite a global boycott. MTV held its first Video Music Awards, celebrating a new wave of pop culture. Iconic songs like Bruce Springsteen’s Born in the U.S.A. and Cyndi Lauper’s Girls Just Want to Have Fun filled the airwaves, capturing a moment of optimism and cultural transformation. Your class stood at the heart of it all—ready to lead, adapt, and inspire.

Now, it’s time to channel that same energy and pride. Reach out to your classmates—teammates, artists, student leaders, and lifelong friends—and invite them to be part of this legacy. Every gift, no matter the amount, brings you closer to completing your Class Circle. You can track your progress online and celebrate each milestone as you build a future for the next generation.

By supporting your Class Circle, you’ll help fund essential programs for today’s students—ensuring the same opportunities, values, and Blue Devil spirit that defined your experience in 1984 continue to thrive.

Forty-one years ago, the Class of 1984 helped shape the heart of Quincy High. Today, you can carry that legacy forward—uniting in purpose to uplift future Blue Devils for generations to come
