Muncie Central High School Alumni Association
Alumni Association celebrates more than 25 years
of service to students, teachers, graduates and community
We, the alumni of Muncie Central High School, recognize the need to build lasting relationships between the graduates and Muncie Central High School. We, therefore, set forth these ideals:
–to stimulate the loyalty of all alumni of the school;
–to encourage their support by uniting them in close bonds of fellowship and mutual assistance;
–and to acquaint them fully with the progress and needs of their Alma Mater.
The Muncie Central High School Alumni Association is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Donations may be tax deductible. Consult state and federal laws regarding contributions.
