Ed Cunningham hasn't added a story.
I would like everyone to be aware of what's happening in the
Princeton City School District. If you don't already know, Princeton
is no longer the almighty financial powerhouse it was when we were
there. The State of Ohio has made massive cuts into the budget. The
"Princeton Advantage" that we all enjoyed is now in
jeopardy. So, it must be preserved from alternative sources.
Follow me here...years ago a teacher was hired at Princeton
when no other school district was willing to take a chance. This
teacher was wheel chair bound with no feeling below the waist.
Princeton gave him a chance and jump started his career. A few years
later he moved on to have a successful career in education. A few
years ago, this teacher passed away. In his will, he left a large sum
of money to the Princeton School District specifically for the
purposes of starting a Foundation...to maintain the "Princeton
advantage." Thereafter, The Princeton Education Foundation was
born. All funds are directed toward the benefit of the students in the
Princeton City School District. About a year ago, I was elected as
Trustee of the Foundation. A major initiative is to bring back the
alumni. On October 19th, we presented the very first Alumni awards
banquet, recognizing some of our most distinguished alum. Its amazing
how many incredibly successful people have degrees from PHS. At the
banquet, the class of 1983 donated $1983 to the Foundation and
challenged every class to do the same. A graduate of the class of 1991
put a matching challenge out to every class up to $5000. Other classes
are jumping in.
Folks, without a doubt, if there's one thing I remember about
our class is the incredible amount of pride we had for our school.
Viking Pride is as strong as ever. On February
28th, The Foundation will be hosting its Princeton Pride Gala. We
expect 500-600 people at the event. The event will consist of
gambling, silent auction, live auction, music, dancing, dinner, and of
course drinks! In addition, at this event each class will present
their respective checks. Our goal is to get one hundred 1989 graduates
at the event to present a check for $1989. Your donation goes a long
way! Let's make it happen!
