Welcome Alumni
Welcome to the official alumni website for Ulysses S. Grant High School -- Portland's premier public senior high school. The Grant High School Alumni Association (GHSAA) is an alumni-led social and service organization bridging the past and future for the benefit of Grant High School and its thousands of graduates. |
The summer Generally Speaking newsletter is now out!
The summer issue of Generally Speaking, our alumni newsletter is now available. You can read it here. And if you're looking for older issues, take a look at our Alumni Newsletters page.
Please note that with this issue we are only emailing a copy of the newsletter to alumni unless you have paid your annual dues and we have a current street address. We are taking this step to insure your dues and donations are used efficiently and to provide the best benefit to our members. The cost of producing, addressing and mailing a printed newsletter has grown to a level we cannot sustain as printing, preparing, and mailing over 1000 copies twice a year is physically and financially ineffective. The full-color summer and winter newsletters will continue to be emailed to all 5000+ of you for whom we have an email address; a black-and-white printed copy will be sent to our alumni who have paid dues.
To receive an emailed copy: make sure we have your correct email address; you can send yours to us at grantalumni@aol.com.
To receive a printed copy: pay your dues! Annual Individual Dues are $20/year, Annual Couple Dues are $30/year (when both are Grant alums), and a Lifetime Membership is $250. New memberships and renewals cover the calendar year beginning January 1 and support GHSAA activities, newsletter, scholarship, and picnic expenses. You can pay your dues by clicking here.
Also, please consider serving a larger role in your US Grant Alumni Association. We have grown the scholarship fund, donated to the music department, have a centennial celebration to plan, and are a significant part of the Grant High School community. As with all groups of this kind, leadership must be handed off to new members over time, and our board is selected from dues paying members. If you are interested in serving, our Vice President chair is open and we can add seats on the board. Please let us know if you are interested; you can contact me at rstayton@comcast.net.
