Ns two' . y Neville High School-A .Tradition In Northeast Louisiana as dy . t Neville High School is a living monument to excellence. From the graceful oaks to the alma mater, Neville is steeped in tradition. Since the laying of her cornerstone, Neville has followed certain customs which have instilled pride in all of her students. Some traditions are old and some new, but all contribute to the excellence here at Neville High School. The physical aspects of Neville High School contribute to her tradition. The building serves as a reminder of days past. Built in 1931, Neville is the oldest school in this area. To those of our present generation, she has always been the same. Neville was built during the depression. Craftsmen labored long hours on every detail. Neville's graceful lines and symmetry are a result oflthis extra care. Evergreens surround the campus creating a peaceful atmosphere. In order to add to the beauty of the grounds, the Senior Class of 1969 dedicated the circular garden in loving 'memory of Dorothy Hodge, Neville's devoted secretary. The stadium has hosted a tradition of Tiger Pride since 1940. It has seen generations of victory and defeat, but always outstanding has been Tiger sportsmanship. To accommodate the ever-growing student body, the band building and the annex were added in the sixties. Though built in more recent times, they blend with Neville's stately grace.
