WELCOME
The Barringer High School Alumni Association, started by a group of teachers in the mid 1980s, has continued to grow over the years; our roster now includes more than 2500 Barringer alumni. Alumni truly define our high school and each alumnus is important to our association. We invite you to maintain your relationship with Barringer through our association as we remember the past and look forward to the future.
MISSION
Our mission is to promote a positive relationship between the high school and its alumni; to promote the history of our school; to honor those graduates who have made important contribution to our community; and, to support the current student body through our Scholarship Fund.
The pride we take in the tradition of Barringer and, a loyalty which stands the test of time, is characteristic of Barringer alumni. We are a group of people who have shared something significant – our lives were shaped by the precious years we spent at Barringer.
