“To me there are three things everyone should do every day.
Number
one is laugh.
Number two--spend some time in thought.
Number three, you should have your emotions move you to tears.
If you laugh, think, and cry, that's a heck of a day.”

Jim Valvano of NC State

In that same vein, on 02 Mar 2010,
we switched servers to provide

The Alma Mater
Words and Music by
Arthur Hundley, 1937
(d. 2 Sept 2008)
Within these sacred walls
we stand,
To praise thine honored name,
We sing to thee,
dear Newport High,
Thy glories we proclaim.
Chorus:
Hail, hail to the Gold and Blue,
We raise thy banners high,
And ever through thine
endless days,
In triumph, may they fly.
O Alma Mater, in our hearts,
We'll often turn to thee,
And echo once again the songs
Of thy dear memory.

Main Page
redesigned 11/25/03 by my # 6 son, Dale Harty of NC
and again by me on 03/22/06
and 10/17/06, when the Site Map was added.
When the whole lower section of the
page
went nutzoidal on 07/05/07 (ARGHH!!!), I was forced to
redesign it again. I've done as much as I dare.
Well, I had, until it became unstable once more on 08/02/07,
so I reworked it again, then once more on 01/19/08, and yet again on
11/14/08, 03/24/09, 07/13/09, and 12/27/10.
I "redecorated" the page on 12/06/11 to include the NNHS65 Home Page
Banner
created by my #5 Son, Nathaniel Harty (Hillsboro HS, IL - '97) of IL
- 06/06/02
Thanks, Nathaniel!
