Elvis Presley Graduated High School 60 years ago today on June 3, 1953 from L.C Humes High School in Memphis. The Graduation ceremony was held at Ellis Auditorium in downtown Memphis. 

Elvis attended Humes High School from his 8th grade year in 1948 until his Graduation. Graduating with Elvis was his friend, George Klein who was the Class President. 

Today, Humes High School is still a school, and it is located at 659 North Manassas Street. The building was built in 1924, and  was placed on the list of National Register of Historic Places in 2004. 

A historic marker will be dedicated at the former location of Humes High School during Elvis Week 2013 on August 13th.
