The high school officially opened in 1910 as St. Augustine High School. The name was changed in 1928 to The Elizabeth Ketterlinus High School to recognize the land contribution made by Elizabeth Ketterlinus. In 2010 (the 50Th anniversary celebration of the current location of the high school) St. Augustine High School went back to its original name. This was also the 100th anniversary of the opening of KHS. The scholarship effort intensified in 2013 with the launch of the Jackets Forever Endowment Fund. Its goal of a $200,000 endowment is halfway realized. You can help us get the rest of the way there by donating today.
That takes many forms but as part of joining the Hall of Fame, all inductees are asked to go into the classroom and share why they were chosen, and how they applied their skills from high school to achieve success in life. Over the years, the Alumni Association has become a resource the school relies on for needs both big and small. From people to serve as test proctors to small contributions of materials or services for educational enhancements, Alumni Association members help SAHS excel.
