AHS Facilities Fund
Stephen F. Austin High School celebrated its 42nd Anniversary of moving to the current campus this year. A few years ago, a very dedicated group of parents, future AHS parents and alumni created the Austin High School Facilities Fund (AHSFF.) This capital fundraising campaign raised almost $60,000 in the past couple of years to fund critical needed facilities improvements throughout the school. This year, we are seeking to raise the extra dollars needed to further improve facilities to enhance athletics, fine arts and other extracurricular programs at Austin High School.
Recognizing the major connection between a stronger extracurricular program and stronger academics, we are asking you to help drive this project to completion of our current goals.
We have broken down our immediate needs into a few categories:
Athletics ($80,000) – Expansion and remodeling of the weight room.
Fine Arts Facilities ($76,000) – Critical needs for the Preas (Black Box) Theatre, Band Hall and the Performing Arts Center stage.
Hall of Honor ($50,000) – Creation of a new wall for Hall of Honorees situated in a much more visible location in the center of the school building.
We are asking for your generous support. Improving these facilities at Austin High School not only impacts the current student body, but also all future students from all of our feeder schools, including: Barton Hills, Brykerwoods, Casis, Mathews, Oak Hill, Patton, Pease, Sanchez, Zilker, O. Henry and Clint Small. Please help us level the playing field for all students at Austin High School by making a donation today. You can send a check payable to “Austin Community Foundation” (Please include “Austin High School Facilities Fund” in the memo line.)
Please mail checks to:
Austin Community Foundation, 4315 Guadalupe St., Suite 300 Austin, TX 78751.
Or, you can make a donation online.
