North Central Alumni Founding Members Society
In the Fall of 1956, North Central opened its doors for the very first time. Hopeful and expectant, students poured into the building with budding hopes and dreams of an education that would set their feet on a path towards success. They became part of an educational institution which is now known for its dedication to quality in education, quality in its curriculum, and quality in its teaching and administrative staff. Graduates felt such strong ties of loyalty to North Central High School that there was movement to create a strong association with which to stay connected.
In the Fall of 1996, a brand new North Central High School Alumni Association was created. This independent entity was established as a “Donor Advised Fund” within the Washington Township Schools Foundation. An initial goal of the new Alumni Association was to create and finance a recognition scholarship to be awarded to a student in each graduating class. But how would this annual scholarship be funded? How would it be sustained? It was with these questions in mind that a dedicated, generous group of alumni and supporters came together and formed the “Founding Members Society.” Each member made a gift of a minimum of $500 to help establish a scholarship endowment so that the North Central High School Alumni Association Scholarship, now called the “Merit Scholarship”, could live on. The initial “Founding Members” have their names memorialized on a bronze plaque in the Student Center. Their legacy and support of our Washington Township Schools live on in the important work of our donors, alumni, and supporters here at the Advancement Center. Every time a teacher or student is the recipient of a scholarship or grant, we honor their memory.
