[edit] Traditions

  • The football team plays its final game of the year against rival Copley High School, and the winner gets possession of The Bell trophy.
  • At the Homecoming football game, instead of the marching band playing the Alma Mater, the marching band will join the Symphonic Choir to sing the Alma Mater. Band/choir alumni who remember their parts are often asked to come to the field to sing with the band and choir.
  • In lieu of a "senior skip day," many recent seniors have opted to participate in Senior Skimp Day, where short shorts and tank tops abound for males and females alike.

[edit] Trivia

  • The Revere High School "Marching Minutemen" were featured in a parade scene in the classic holiday film, A Christmas Story.

[edit] Alma Mater

Revere, our Alma Mater
Thy name we give acclaim
And pray that all our lives shall be
So lived to bring thee fame
The scarlet, white and royal blue
Inspire each heart to cheer
Our school, our Alma Mater dear
Revere, Revere, Revere
