Miscellaneous Memorabilia

This is the oldest bit of Kearney nostalgia I have. Printed when we were in eighth grade, and replete with misspellings, it is a newspaper article listing the very first scholarship winners to the school. Some of them may surprise you. Others you may not remember at all.

This is the program page which listed the academic honors awarded at graduation.

This is the roster of Regents Scholarship winners

Do you remember what you classmates looked like when our high school years began in 1962? Here are most of the graduation pictures from the various 8th grade classes that formed our freshman class.

Did you happen to go to St. Salome's Elementary School? If so, here's some additional nostalgia. (8th grade with IDs.)
