All hail to thee Saint Albans
The school we love so well
And of thy deeds victorious

As years unfold before us
Our hearts will loyal be
To our dear alma mater


Saint Albans hail to thee!

Red Dragons Firsts

  • From 1914 -1933, Girls Basketball was the most popular and organized sport.
  • The Lovers Club had full pages in the first two Yearbooks. Their flower was the red rose, the club "yell" was a gentle sigh, and Cupid was the General manager. It had more than 20 members listed along with its officers and a lovely drawing of a young couple in an embrace but nothing about its formation, goals, etc. It does seem a bit risqué for 1915-1916. One is left wondering what happened to this club?
  • The Class of 1929 was the first graduating class to wear caps and gowns.
  • The Senior Class President of '31 had to sell the idea of a Junior-Senior Prom to the Board of Education.
  • The class of 1932 standardized class rings and were the first class to present letters to school athletics.
  • Mr. H. C. Pittenger came to SAHS in 1918 and was still teaching in 1964. He began the Chorus and the SAHS Orchestra.
  • The National Honor Society began in 1933.
  • Cheerleaders are named for the first time in the 1935 Simmerings.
  • Mr. Harold Leighty began the Band in 1935.
  • The first Miss Red Dragon was Lillian Coalter Deaner.
  • The first Majorette Corp to march with the band was in 1946.
