Annual Meeting

The annual meeting of the membership is usually held in mid-May. Discussions at the 2008 annual meeting centered on the need for new membership to sustain the Fund's programs into the future. There is a particular need for help in the nomination and selection process
of new recipients of the KHS Outstanding Educators Award. 

The Outstanding Educator Award

The ninth annual Outstanding Educator Award was presented to Jonathan Perry at the all-school assembly in June, 2008. Mr. Perry is a KHS teacher of English and American Studies. He also coaches KHS basketball. If you have occasion to be in the Keene High School, view our award plaque in the main lobby. Pictured are the award recipients.
