Just trying to get some ideas. As you probably do as well, have many classmates that graduated early or maybe even a year behind, or maybe moved away before Senior year. We still consider them our classmates since most have gone through all of our school years together. Currently we have some of them identified as guests, but I think maybe better would be to move them to the classmate list and indicate a graduation year, or maybe not even need to? Any thoughts on how this is managed for your class?

Look at the Former Classmates page on our site. It's a custom page we created to include classmates who were in our class between kindergarten and 12th grade but did not graduate in our class. We have class rosters going back to kindergarten, so we were able to include many more former classmates than just those who were in high school with us.

We consuder these classmates as dear as those who graduated, so when they join our site, they go on the Classmate Profiles page, not the Guest Members page.
