Hampton High School Alumni

three names that made Hampton History:
Raymond Charles Lewis '32, one of the best football players of Hampton.
Coach Suey Eason, comparable to Coach Mike Smith - it would be a good game if their best teams played each other.
Ann Mitchell Lewis, bus driver 17 years, play ground director Mallory, Recreation Dept Arts and Crafts under Suey Eason.

The 2009 Hunt for Hampton History will focus on the history of our schools and educators who have influenced the course of Education in Hampton.

In conjunction with the Hampton 400 Oral History Project, we are looking for teachers, coaches, guidance counselors, principals, superintendents, bus drivers, school nurses, attendance secretaries, maintenance staff, cafeteria staff, librarians, etc who hold a place in your memory. Our intention is to find and recognize people who have made a difference (small or large) through Hampton City Schools and Hampton’s private schools.

If you would like to share a quick memory about an educator, please submit the memory, the educator’s name, and the school where the memory took place to emcmahon@hampton.gov. So often employees are not given opportunities for recognition, especially those in administrative, staff, and maintenance roles. Please share your stories so we have an opportunity to thank our schools for all they do.

For more information or ways that you can participate in the Hunt for Hampton History, please contact 757-726-5437

The HHS PTSA's After -prom committee is in need of financial and/or in-kind donations to help out with the After Prom. The After Prom is an alcohol- and drug-free event sponsered by the PTSA that is held after the prom from 12 am to 4:30 am. It includes games, contests, prizes and other fun activities. Food and drinks are also served. Basically we are providing a safe alternative for the graduating Senior Class. The celebration is held at no cost for the student with the After- Prom committee covering all expenses. Last year the After-Prom was very sucessful and we would like that to continue. The event this year will be held May 2-3 at the Hampton YMCA. If any alumni or alumni class would like to donate please contact Daphne Darden (PTSA President) by phone at 728-1912 or email her at DKMDARDEN@earthlink.net
