x Few institutions in our area have en- joyed a longer period of continuous ser- vice than has J. B. Pennington High School, which for seventy-five years has served the people of Blount County and the surrounding area. Therefore, the Diamond Jubilee year of 1970 seemed an appropriate time to put together the ma- terial students and teachers have col- lected over the years. This history has been written to fulfill a need for an accurate account of Penning- ton High School. The name of the school has changed from Ninth District Agricul- tural School, to Central District Agricul- tural School, to State Secondary Agri- cultural School, to Blountsville High School to its present name J. B. Pennington High School. Fire having destroyed all official records three times, the collection of ma- terial has been difficultg there may be some errors in class rolls. The staff wishes to thank all who have contributed to the compilation of this history. 'QON Hlg 111 v VL xv! O DIAMOND IUBILE-E YEAR Q- V ILL E PA' C: Se AGC' Q- -ff ' V' ,, . , CD G S wh bv f xx 9 I

Marlys R. Sutton J. B. PENNINGTON HIGH SCHOOL ALMA MATER Stately stands our Alma Mater, Dear old Pennington High, We remember now thy glory. Victories gone by. Fight on, Tigers, fight with valor Strive with all your might. We will proudly wave our banner For the Gold and White. Gracefully our dear old high school Crowns a hill of green. Pure and white the stately columns Add a touch serene. Honor, Courage, set our pattern As we travel far. Lead us ever, truly onward, Be our guiding star. ALMA MATER CON CEIVED DURING FOOTBALL GAME One cold rainy night, several years ago in Albertville, when we were playing a footbaH game with the Aggies, there came a hushed mo- ment on the field during the half, and then the Albertville rooters sang their Alma Mater. I was sitting with several teachers, trying to keep dry under an assortment of necessary raingear. After the song the teachers expressed a wish for a school song at Pennington, and they urged me to Write the words to one. This Alma Mater is the result of this idea.
