In 2011, the WCHS Alumni Association began taking steps to become a formal organization that will maintain charitable association with Watseka High School organizations, stimulate interest and relationships of WCHS Alumni and promote activities in which our community can be involved with our schools. This Association has evolved as an expansion of more than 100 years of Alumni Banquets and active Alumni Classes! It is the Association's goal to provide services to alumni and encourage alumni advocacy for the entire Unit Nine School District.
Several of the Association's purposes are listed, but not limited to the following:
promote the spirit of alumni unity by utilizing communications, reunions and other activities through the creation of a formal website and promoting the coordination of alumni activities.
maintain a means of contact between former graduates of WCHS, its former teachers and administrators and those who served at all its feeder schools.
celebrate Watseka Community High School's heritage and promote pride as a cornerstone where quality education leads students to dream and aspire to all that can be achieved through hard work and dedication.
help facilitate and support academic programs, extracurricular programs and other student activities within the entire district.
