Willowbrook High School
Alumni
Willowbrook is very proud to have 50 years of alumni. Because our alumni are so important, we have put together some resources for them so that they can stay connected to Willowbrook and the community, whether it is to find out reunion information or to hear the fight song just ONE MORE TIME! Enjoy and remember, Once a Warrior, Always a Warrior.
Distinguished Alumni / Service Recognition Program
The Distinguished Alumni/Service Recognition Program is an opportunity to celebrate those individuals that have made significant contributions to the Willowbrook community over the past 50 years. We are excited to have a new class of Distinguished Warriors join Robert Falls and Dr. Rick Akira Nishimura, who were recognized 10 years ago as Distinguished Alumni members. Selected members will be invited to participate in an Induction Ceremony on September 30, 2010, as part of our Homecoming 2010 festivities.
The 2010 recipients and information related to the event can be found here.
Please note that nominations should be received by April 29, 2011, to be considered for selection in 2011. Nominations received after that date, though, will be accepted and considered for future years as we look forward to continuing the program on an annual basis.
