Meet the Alumni Board
In 2014, Kellenberg Memorial established its first official Alumni Association Board, the mission of which is to provide opportunities for Firebird alumni to maintain contact with each other and the school. The officers of the first board served for two years, with new board officers having been named this fall. The new board officers, as well as past officers who have agreed to continue to serve in an advisory role, are below. We thank them all for their continued support of Kellenberg Memorial.
