In the final minutes before his first announcement as the new Apollo High School principal in 1995, Dale Stewart was searching for a phrase to unite the students. He came up with “Always an Eagle Family,” followed by “Thank you for listening.” So began Stewart’s legacy at Apollo, and he’s continued leaving his mark over the last 3 decades. On Friday, the private access drive at the school was renamed in his honor.
