If the school still exists, and you're interested in finding out, you could contact and ask for a copy of your school records. Any school(s) you transferred to afterward should have those records as well.
The record keeping is mostly guided by FERPA (like HIPPA for public schools). How long records are kept varies by State but most of them mandate 50+ years or longer. Those that don't also lack enforcement for destruction and people are lazy so... You'll usually find something even if it's not all the info you wanted.
They're obligated by law to provide the records you're entitled to within 45 days of the request.
You may not be that interested but I figured if you, or someone else reading this, are sufficiently interested then this info might be helpful.
