Initiated by Dorothy Petrancosta (Class of 1981), “The Foundation Challenge” will run from March 29, 2017 through Homecoming weekend 2017. It is a way for Shaler Area, Etna, Millvale Reserve and Shaler graduates to acknowledge the education received and to enhance the education of future graduates
Open letter to Shaler Area High School Alumni:
Our Shaler Area education is our FOUNDATION. It provided us with fundamental and portable skills essential to our ability to convey and receive information critical to our subsequent training and life successes in our homes and in our workplaces.
We have the ability to recognize our life successes and pass them on to our district students by financially supporting their educational needs and curricular advancement with our financial support.
I have made a $500.00 donation to our Shaler Area Education Foundation as the FOUNDATION of a challenge to you, my fellow alumni, to recognize your successes and pass them on to our district students with financial donations payable to the Shaler Area Education Foundation, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization qualified to receive tax deductible donations.
