Classes from the 1950's to the 2000's are planning class reunions in conjunction with Railer 125, October 1-2, 1010. Is your class one of them? All known class reunion info is posted on the Newton High School Alumni page and is updated as we receive it. Today we posted new info for the class of 1990... check out their awesome video! The class of 1960 will celebrate 50 years since graduation! The class of 1985 were fresh-faced graduates during the Railer 100--25 years ago. How will they commemorate their 25th?

Is your class planning to tailgate before the football game Friday night? We will have tables set up in the band shell area outside the stadium and Booster Club will be selling food from the bandshell. Tables will be marked with each decade, so friends can touch base there. If you would like a table reserved for your class, let us know: e-mail newton373@gmail.com.
