The banner of the Montgomery, Messenger proclaims it the "Kolacky Kapitol of the World." It's a farming town of about 2,400 residents, 70 miles southwest of the Twin Cities, where Czechoslovakian Catholic traditions are dominant and where the high school is the center of activity. Reporter Jacqui Banaszynski and photographer Marlin Levison made several visits to Montgomery to spend time with members of the Montgomery-Lonsdale High School Class of '83 throughout their senior year to find out what kids are tike today. Montgomery was chosen because the class was large enough (129 graduates) to be somewhat representative of other high schools, but small enough to get to know.

The school was far enough from the Twin Cities to have an identity of its own without a big-city influence, but not so far away that it is isolated. (Besides, the principal said it was O.K.) Banaszynski and Levison found things to be surprisingly similar to the way things were in the small high schools they went to several years ago with a few notable exceptions: drugs are readily available, even in this small town, although drinking is still a bigger problem among high school students; more kids have cars of their own; the threat of nuclear war seems to contribute to an ambivalence about the future.
