High school seems like just yesterday. That is, until you're opening a letter in the mail that happens to be an invitation for your five- or 10-year reunion. It can be shocking — the realization that that much time has passed since you were a hopeful senior. As you prepare to meet up with old friends, you'll need several sentimental reunion quotes for throwback pictures and selfies of everyone all together again.

Your high school crew was there for every important moment of those four years of your life. While you may have stayed in touch since then, it’s still interesting to see the different paths everyone in your class took after getting their high school diplomas. Where the heck did the time even go? It doesn't matter if you were the class clown, a bookworm, or the most popular person in school. When you attend your high school reunion, it's almost like you're reintroducing yourself, because you’ve changed.

Just like you’ll enjoy remembering the good ol’ days of scurrying to your locker and hightailing it to class, you’ll want to remember this moment of seeing your high school buddies all grown up. Snap as many selfies as you can. You may even want to recreate some iconic photos from your high school days for a fun throwback IG post. The only thing you need to make it happen are some high school friends quotes to use as your caption. The right school reunion quotes will capture all the feels you have being with your crew once again, but since you’re done with all the homework and deadlines, no need to come up with your own words. Instead, use any of these 25 reunion quotes that make A+ captions.
