Auditorium restoration, undertaken in 2001, continues. The Foundation has generated over $350,000.00 in private funds to appropriately restore the facility. At the rededication gala celebrated the restoration and honored the listing on the National Register of Historic Places.

The week-long events showcased every department including a museum of school artifacts.

  • Choraliers presented a lively concert called 'A Century of Music' featuring songs from each decade...
  • TV broadcast students created and narrated a multi-media production during the concert...
  • Jazz Band performed on senior court...
  • A student art exhibit graced the halls...
  • students in the foods classes provided refreshments...
  • A 'museum' attracted many to the memorabilia of the high school from over the years...
  • The original linen blueprints by Architect William B. Ittner were displayed in the library...
  • FSHS Thespian Troupe was reinstated as #2 once again. Michael Peitz of the International Thespians presented the school with this designation (FSH lost the "Troupe #2" designation in the '70s and was reassigned "Troupe 2243" as a result). Fairmont State College officials were also on hand to present the school with a commemorative plaque now displayed at FSC honoring the establishment of International Thespian Society and Alpha Psi Omega which originated in 1929 in Fairmont...

    • Phase II auditorium improvements (electrical work, lighting, HVAC and other embellishments such as stage refurbishing). In-kind donations are welcomed for these projects.

    Contributions and other fund raising activities are used to provide student scholarships and teacher grants. Contributions can be earmarked by the donor to be used by any of these particular funds. Several businesses and civic groups contribute money to the Foundation to be awarded as well. As a general rule, these scholarships are awarded to deserving students who do not otherwise receive grants or scholarships from colleges or universities yet have maintained high academic achievement and service to their school. This program is a way to recognize their contributions.
