Franklin-Simpson Educational Excellence Foundation

2009-10 F-S Alumni Membership Drive Underway--JOIN NOW!

The 2009-2010 F-S Alumni Association membership drive is officially underway.  We are proud to say that over the past three years, we have awarded $17,500 in scholarships to four FSHS seniors.  Alumni membership contributions are placed in our scholarship/grant fund and dispersed within our school system.  NO ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS ARE PAID BY YOUR GENEROUS CONTRIBUTIONS.

We realize that the economic times we are all facing are difficult, but at times like these it is important to give to those who helped shape us into the successful business people, parents, community members we are today.  A contribution to the F-S Alumni Association not only acknowledges the impact that the F-S school system had on shaping your life, but also invests in the futures of our local youth.  We are helping them to form the same solid foundation that we experienced!
