W S Neal High School

I graduated SEVERAL years ago from W.S. Neal High School and my experience from 6th grade thru graduating 12th grade were very positive. We didn't have the same problems in our society as we have now. Our teachers were as good as any in the state if not country. There was no bullying. NONE. It just didn't exist in my time. My graduating class produced many good, responsible people who contributed to our society in a positive manner. My heart is still at W.S.Neal High School. I still wear my High School graduation ring with pride...... Right now I have intentions to leave it to my Great grandson when I pass cause he seems to really like it..Although I do hope he gets his own one day but I don't think it will be the quality of mine.......When a fellow Nealian, from my era, sees my ring it is automatically recognized as a Neal ring cause our whole class had the same ring. And apparently for a few years afterward that same practice was still in effect cause some of my fellow Nealians are from classes after mine who are recognizing me as a fellow Nealian from my class ring, which is just like the one he or she might be wearing. I was disappointed when my own children began to graduate from W.S.Neal and they picked out their own design for their rings....I could go on forever I suppose but I can't finish this without mentioning the extracurricular activity that made my years in school so easy and passed too quick--the school band , band concerts, football games and the half-time show ( which entailed many hours of practice both during and after school} we marched in the Mobile Mardi Gra parade 3 years while I was there, plus the governors inauguration parade in Montgomery. Band was very important for me and my sibling while we were there...And we had a GOOD Band. Enough from me --I'm just so thankful that I lived my life in the era that I have.........and I had W.S.Neal High School in that era........The administration, teachers, curriculum, the mores of the time and most of all my fellow students....

Off topic, but does anybody know a number or email address for the school or more specifically the football coach? Strange situation but I live abroad and have found a 1973 Neal championship ring and would like to hunt down who it belongs to. Any help is much appreciated.
