Our Heartfelt Thanks to our Generous Supporters
Since 1952, generations of graduates have generously supported the Alumni Association, enabling us to provide meaningful financial assistance to deserving students and vital school programs. To date, we have contributed more than $1.75 million toward initiatives including Athletics, Culinary Arts, ROTC, the National Honor Society, Career and Technical Education (CTE), and ESL programs.
We are especially grateful to the following individuals for their recent contributions. Their generosity continues to strengthen our mission and honor those who inspired them:
- Linda Hughes, in honor of her parents, William and Lorraine Feldman
- Myron Berman and Arthur Berman, in honor of their parents, Kermit and Anita
- William Paullin Jr., in honor of his father, Billy Paullin
- Barry Wizov, in honor of his brother, Sandy Wizov
As we look to the future, we invite all alumni and friends to consider supporting the Alumni Association. Your contribution—of any size—helps us continue this proud tradition of giving and ensures that future generations of students have access to the same opportunities and resources.
Thank you for your continued support and commitment to our students and school community.
