The 135th Annual Newton Alumni Banquet was held on May 13, 2017 at 6:00 pm in the Junior High gymnasium. Alumni honored classes who graduated 75 years ago (Class of 1942), 60 years ago (Class of 1957), 50 years ago (Class of 1967), and 25 years ago (Class of 1992). The graduating class of 2017 was also inducted into the alumni.

Ruth Rench Flory, a graduate of the class of 1937, was the oldest attending member and was given a Newton puzzle, while six members of the class of 1942 were able to attend and received a Newton History Book.  Jason Graham was inducted into the Hall of Fame as a former band director.  Scholarships were given to Blair Wehrley ($1000), Kassidi Alexander ($500) and Jackson Riffle ($500).  Riffle provided a performance on the xylophone as the entertainment for the evening.  The sophomore class set up and took down the tables and chairs and the meal was served by Batdorf's Red Barn Catering Service.  Next year's Alumni Banquet will be held on Saturday, May 12.
