The present Alumni Association was
started in 2000. It began with a meeting of several representatives
from various alumni classes and FHS administration.
The purpose of the Association is to support and promote FHS, its
student body, administration and staff, as well as the surrounding
community.
As part of our efforts to raise monies for FHS, we had our first
annual alumni dinner on April 19,2000. We are looking forward to our
6th alumni dinner in 2005.
We have been involved in many other projects. The association made
recommendations to resurface the girls basketball courts and
followed the project through to its completion.
Next, there was need for new bleachers in the gym. The association
was instrumental in causing this to come to fruition. The gym floor
was another project we were involved in.
After the fire of October 2002, we donated $4,000 that was used for
restoration of the FHS auditorium to its original glory.
The Alumni Association has given mini grants of $500 each for
teachers to enrich their curriculum and supplement their budgets.
We have given monies for event programs as well as student
scholarships. Currently we are developing signage for the outside
west wall of the auditorium that would be visible from Palm Avenue.
We have been the driving force for getting things done that might
never have come to be without our involvement.
The Association stand as testament to our commitment to the great
traditions of Fresno High by supporting its students staff and
programs.
