Donations for the Shortridge Legacy Scholarship Fund are welcome in any amount at any time; however, Founding Members Legacy Guild (FMLG) continues only until December 31, 2012, Donations to this restricted fund is a source for scholarships that will be awarded to deserving students who may be from the first graduating class in 2013.

Donors to FMLG will have their names inscribed on a bronze plaque that will be permanently displayed along the main corridor of the school at the end of this special fund drive

Alumni Info Search
We recently received a unique request from David Hine, an Air Force retiree from Greenfield (Hancock County) who has been involved in a project to provide photos of servicemen (Shortridge alumni) from Central Indiana that were killed in Vietnam. Our alumni association does not have that data. Mr. Hine is attempting to find photos and/or other information of Marion County casualties in order to complete a photo collage that will be displayed in The Education Center at The Wall that will be built near the Vietnam Veterans and Lincoln Memorials.
If any of you can assist with more information for this project, kindly contact David Hine at mrdavidlhine@att.net. Other resources for information regarding this project are available: |
