2015 Distinguished Alumnus: Chris Watts
Shaler Area School District is proud to honor Chris Watts (Class of 2004) as the 2015 Distinguished Alumnus.

Mr. Watts is one of the youngest alumni to be recognized through the Distinguished Alumnus Award program, which annually honors a graduate of Shaler Area, Shaler, Etna or Millvale School Districts who has made a valuable contribution to society either in his or her personal or professional life.

Mr. Watts was named executive director of the National Foundation on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition in May 2015. Formerly, he served as a Fellow on the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition and the managing director of 4POINT4, a sports apparel company that contributes proceeds to charity.

His accomplishments led him to be named one of Forbes 30 Under 30 2015 in the Sports category.

After graduating from Shaler Area, Mr. Watts went on to earn a degree in engineering from Carnegie Mellon University and an MBA from George Washington University.

Mr. Watts was honored and presented with the Distinguished Alumnus Award during the National Honor Society Induction Ceremony held in October 2015, where he addressed the High School students and encouraged them to take advantage of every opportunity.
