*Memories from a Long, Long Time Ago- From Eugene Lewan: "I was about 10 years behind and remember the T-wings of the Junior High and the cafeteria being under construction, but I was unaware that the High School also had temporary buildings. Are there any pictures of HHS during the transition? A fun read. Thanks, Wayne"
In Memoriam
Editors' Note: We recently learned how to search obituaries that mention Hicksville High School. Thus, this month, we have included older obituaries and entered these names on our In Memoriam pages. And a special thank you goes to the Hicksville Public Library for posting yearbooks that help us verify class years of graduates. You can access the yearbooks from the HixNews site under Resources.
