52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks 2025 – Week 36: Off to School

NOTE: I accepted the 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks challenge headed by fellow genealogy blogger Amy Johnson Crow. The idea behind this challenge is that you will receive email prompts, a word or phrase, every week, and you find something about your research or family history to write about.  Click HERE to read my first 52 Ancestors blog post in 2019.

My high school, Newport High School. I have fond memories of my time there from 1992-1995. I played basketball, was in the French Club, Student Bank Board, Future Teachers of America, and FBLA, was on the yearbook staff, was on homecoming court during my senior year, and made lifelong friends. Newport High School was part of my foundation and the teachers and staff helped prepare me for my future and began the process of shaping me into the woman I am today.
