Alumni Association Year in Review

This past year, Shorewood Alumni Association has prepared for growth by securing relationships within the High School and Community, and reaching out in new ways. It has made a concerted effort to make only targeted expenditures to connect with SHS and the community, while gearing up for long-term savings and endowments in the near future. Your donation to the SHS Alumni Association is not only appreciated, but directly connects your past with the future. Whether your donation is for annual membership, in honor of one of the memorial funds, or is for a coming endowment for drama or another area you specify, we are committed to making sure 100% of your donation is used toward that purpose.
