Cheers to 100 Years Milton HS Set To Celebrate 1921-2021

The 2020-2021 school year will mark the 100th anniversary of the first graduating class of Milton HS. A steering committee of current and former faculty, alumni, and parents is working diligently to plan and coordinate a yearlong celebration of this milestone. 

Jackie Angel, Milton 100 committee chair, hopes the anniversary festivities will give alumni time to reconnect and reminiscence about the time they spent at the historic school. For current students and families, it will be a year of celebrating their school and its enduring legacy.

To honor the anniversary, several hardscaping and landscaping projects are in the works for the Milton campus. The committee plans to utilize 75th Anniversary commemorative bricks from the old Milton HS as a walkway for a project at the Birmingham Road campus. 

The MHS Touchdown Club has already begun selling bricks for a wall at the stadium, celebrating the schools centennial. The architectural plans feature the cornerstones from the original School Drive building. Information about the project can be found at 4EverBricks.com/donors/mhs. Please choose 100 Year Celebration Fund from the drop-down menu to help raise money for the celebration.

Current and former students and families will be able to buy bricks that will be used to accent the area around the flagpole in front of the current school. Information about the projects and events will be available on the Milton 100 website Milton100.com, which is currently under construction.

Throughout the year, athletic organizations, performing arts, visual arts, clubs, and alumni classes will hold special events. Athletes will wear commemorative patches on their uniforms, new banners will line the schools entrance, and historical artifacts will be on display at the school. A special family-friendly closing weekend event is planned for May 2021. Preparations are being made for a spectacular year of homecoming celebrations for Milton students and alumni.
