The Thurston High School Alumni Association is dedicated to fostering connections among alumni and supporting future generations of Thurston High School graduates. A key part of this commitment is providing scholarship opportunities for graduating seniors.
Since 2020, the Alumni Association has proudly awarded scholarships to deserving students,
helping them pursue their post-high school education. We’re thrilled to announce that in 2025, we’ve expanded our support to offer three scholarships, up from a single $1,000 scholarship.
We raise funds for these scholarships through various initiatives, including our Annual All-Year
Picnic, generous donations of excess funds from Class Reunion events, and contributions made via the Big Blue Donation Button on our website’s donate page. Your support directly contributes to the success of our graduating seniors!
