Newport Alumni Association

The Newport Alumni Association was established in 1999 by the Newport School District School Board to distribute scholarship funds as a non-profit organization.  In 2017 it expanded to recognize the achievements and accomplishments of Newport High School graduates through the Alumni Hall of Fame.  We also preserve memorabilia, provide communication to alumni and coordinate and host the annual all-class reunion.

Mission

The mission of the Newport Alumni Association shall be to grant scholarships to graduating students from the public high school in the Newport School District, to provide financial assistance to programs and facilities of the Newport School District and the preservation of historical memorabilia pertaining to the Newport School District, its schools and students.

All Class Reunion

The All-class reunion started with the class of 1942, the reunion evolved to include the adjoining classes of 1930’s,40’s,50’s and 60’s and became a yearly event.  In 2009 Joe Sutton became the chair and extended the reunion to include all alumni of Newport School District.  The all-class reunion is scheduled each year to coincide with the Newport High School fall Homecoming week.

Scholarships

The Newport Alumni Association awards a minimum of 3 scholarships annually from donations received from alumni.   Along with those scholarships we present scholarships in honor of James and Mildred Sewell, Verne and Lorraine Lindsay, Linda Mathis, Dr. Mary Jo Kennett and the Kalispel tribe.   Donations are always appreciated and tax deductible.

Volunteers

The Alumni Association is always looking for volunteers to assist with the all-class reunion, scholarships, website, showcases, class composites and serving on the board.  You can contact any alumni board member for further information.
