The first week of May our Alumni benches were installed! and now the brass plaques are installed. The staff did a great job. Many thanks!
In April of ’25, the SHAFI Board budgeted $5,000 to participate in the festivities of our 100th Anniversary. In March they voted to contribute Two six-foot PURPLE MEMORIAL BENCHES to South as a forever gift. The students seem to be enjoying them.
Thank you to LtCol Meek for his assistance. As always Col Meek and his JrROTC staff gave us the support and assistance we needed.

SHAFI Business…
Fiscal Year 2024 to 2025
Our membership year has come to a close (Sept 30) and we are planning for our next year. It’s going to be a big year for South High School.. our 100th!!
Financial Summary
With 964 paid members, SHAFI continues to thrive thanks to the generosity and loyalty of our ALUMNI community.
From Oct ’24 through Sept ’25, we received $33,500 in both memberships and donations along with $1,005. in interest income. These funds allowed us to directly give back into South High supporting students and school programs. The largest portion, $22,000, supported the GIVING GROCERY, ensuring that students in need have a reliable access to food and basic essentials. We also contributed $5,640 to sports, activities and JROTC, $9,380 for our Alumni Newsletter. Our ongoing responsibility to Reunions, Clock, History Room and Office expenses fill the $3,000 of our budget.
As we look forward to our October ’25-September ’26 fiscal year we remain focused on Student Support with an added $5,000 to our exciting 100th Anniversary Event in April of 2026.
