Our Primary Goals

1. To provide scholarship assistance to deserving seniors at Fairfield High School and to worthy students in cities where charters are organized.
2. To promote membership in school and civic matters.
3. To encourage active participation of members on all phases of community life.
4. To keep alive the memory of The F.I.H.S., its principal, teachers, and students.

The Association has eight organized chapters throughout the United States, namely California, Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, Fairfield, Georgia, New York and Washington, D.C. Metro. A Board of Directors is the governing body of The Association. The Board of Directors consists of five national officers, the president and one representative of each chapter and the Reunion Coordinator. The Board meets annually and additional meetings may be held as stipulated in the By-laws. A Grand Reunion of the school is held every two years in the Fairfield/Birmingham Metro Areas. The Reunion recognizes the varied services rendered by the Chapter of their communities.
