This past June, the FHS Alumni Association awarded $54,000 in Scholarships to members of the class of 2017. With the hard work from volunteers at Alumni events, and the donations received from loyal Alumni members all over the country, we are able to give out an extra $20,800 in Continuation Grants this coming September. Continuation grant applications are available to any Fillmore High graduate continuing their higher education in trade schools, colleges, and universities. Pictured are Riley Wright FHS Class of 2011, and Irma Torres, Class of 2016. Riley is finishing her Master Credential in Education at California Lutheran University.

She is on schedule to receive her Associate’s Science degree in 2018 and her Associate’s Science Degree for Nursing (A.S.N.) in 2020.
