***********************************************************

It's about remembering high school days, the people who knew you "when", the excitement of a Tiger football game on a crisp fall night, the class you struggled (or excelled) in, that special teacher who cared so much, the pride you felt on graduation day. But it's also about the future, about doing something positive to encourage students in the high school today, about sharing the pride all McKeesport graduates feel.

When you join the McKeesport High School Alumni and Friends Association, you become an important part of the community and school district at a time when your support and involvement are needed most.

The organization is open to all McKeesport graduates as well as all other "friends" who are committed to excellence in public education.

Members have an opportunity to contribute each year to a "give back" gift for the high school. These gifts have made an important statement to our students – that McKeesport Area High School is an alma mater worthy of respect.

Each year, a select group of McKeesport alumni is inducted into the McKeesport High School Hall of Fame, a special gallery of achievers established in 1987 by the alumni association. Plaques honoring each year's inductees are on permanent display at the high school.

The alumni association also acts as a clearinghouse for classes planning reunions and can provide limited assistance in contacting class members. Association members receive the "Share Our Pride" newsletter twice yearly.

Yearly memberships in the McKeesport High School Alumni and Friends Association are available in the following categories:

Regular Membership $10.00
Includes the "Share Our Pride" newsletter, mailed to your home two times a year; a Tiger lapel pin for first-year members; and a membership card.

Supporting Member $25.00
Includes all features of Regular Membership plus an alumni T-Shirt.

Sustaining Member $50.00
Includes all features of the Regular Membership plus a golf shirt with a "McKeesport Alumni" logo.

McKeesport Alumni Association
Seeks 2010 Hall of Fame Nominees

Monday, May 31, is the deadline for submitting nominations for the 2010 Class of inductees to the McKeesport High School Hall of Fame.
 
Anyone may nominate, according to Association President Linda L. Croushore. Candidates must have attended McKeesport schools, have graduated at least 10 years ago (if they completed high school here), and have gone on to lives marked by outstanding accomplishments in the public or private sectors. Applications are being sought now for the 2010 class, to be inducted at the annual Alumni Recognition Night dinner and program on Saturday, Oct. 9, at Stratigos Banquet Centre, North Huntingdon Twp.
 
This will be its 23rd class of inductees. To date, 149 people have been elected to the Hall of Fame. Over the years, several members have returned to the high school and shared their expertise and experiences with present-day students. Such "give-backs" are encouraged, Dr. Croushore said, adding, "The honorees are great role models for our young people."
 
Nominations must be made in writing and should include an up-to-date biography and photo of the nominee. Applications may be obtained at the association office, 410 Ninth Street, McKeesport (412/678-9215) or by writing to: McKeesport High School Alumni & Friends Association, P.O. Box 432, McKeesport, Pa., 15134. They also may be printed from this website by clicking here.
 
Candidates are evaluated by a special steering committee of the alumni organization, and selections are announced in early summer.
