Updated 3/3/10 Reunion Information Updated
The
Rose Tree Media Alumni Association and Rose Tree Media School District are
pleased to announce a strategic partnership to provide a means for Alumni to
become more active in their support of the students, the school community and
Alumni events. The
Rose Tree Media Alumni Association was formed in 1981.
The Association includes all the Media High School Alumni as reflected in
the Association's logo of a lion and mustang.
The incorporators were Phil Damiani, John Cunningham, Bonnie D'Ignazio,
Linda Arters, Guy Messick and Don and Penny Flounders.
The Association was active for several years, providing college tuition
grants to graduating seniors, holding Alumni recognition dinners and inducting
deserving Alumni in the Hall of Fame. While
other Alumni participated in the Association, the Association did not have
enough participation to sustain itself and the Association became inactive over
time. Superintendent Denise Kerr
recently expressed an interest in re-activating the Alumni Association and had
initial discussions with Association board member Sue Mescanti.
Sue added Phil Damiani and Guy Messick to the group.
The
Association has worked with Meg Barney, Ed. D. of the District to develop the
details of the strategic partnership. Sue
Mescanti and Bill Tyson have volunteered on behalf of the Association to work
with the District liaison volunteers, John Lohn and Nancy Peters, to implement
the new relationship. It
is envisioned that the Association will provide funds for scholarships,
supplemental programs to enrich the student experiences, school sponsored
community events, Alumni social events and displays of memorabilia.
It is also envisioned that the Association will help coordinate the
Alumni's personal involvement in activities such as volunteer speakers and
student mentors. The Association
will develop a website to communicate information and solicit feedback and to be
a hub to help classes organize reunions. All
participants are excited about the positive potential of this newly forged
relationship for the RTM students, schools, Alumni and the community.
Volunteers are being solicited to participate in the Association at all
levels and in all capacities. If
you have an interest to participate in any way, please contact one of the
following persons. Sue Mescanti, 610-565-2165, susan@rtmaa.org
Phil Damiani. 610-565-0476 damianip@co.delaware.pa.us;
Guy Messick, 610-891-9000, gmessick@cusolaw.com. |
