Funds raised from the 50th Anniversary Activities held during the 2006 Homecoming Weekend were turned over by the 50th Anniversary Committee to the South High Alumni Association. Additionally, a portion of each Alumni member’s annual dues were set aside for the SHHS Alumni Association Scholarship Fund. Funds raised from advertisements and sponsorships of this website above the actual costs to maintain the site also go toward building the scholarship fund.
