Founded in 1987 at the request of the Board of Trustees of the Upper Arlington Education Foundation, the Upper Arlington Alumni Association is a strong organization whose purpose is to keep U.A. Alumni, faculty and friends connected both to each other and to the school district. There are few public high schools in the country who are fortunate enough to have such an active and interested Association!
   

Your membership dues enable us to maintain this website, our database and mailings, plus give money for special projects and equipment in the U.A. Schools. We do this along with our parent group, the Upper Arlington Education Foundation. The Foundation and Association have given more than $2.4 million back to the schools. The assets to date are just under $1 million. Your gifts to the Foundation and Association are truly appreciated and well used!

For your convenience, you can easily and securely pay your membership dues online through Paypal.
  

For years, UAAA printed a newsletter, Traditions, twice a year (Spring and Fall), that contained news of Class Reunions, articles about alumni and the district, and class news. In February, 2010, we began providing our Traditions newsletters ONLINE and by email! In addition to the convenience of an email newsletter, this format is kinder to our budget and is environmentally responsible.

If you would like to contribute to the next issue, please email Ellen or call her at the Alumni Office at 614-487-5007, ext. 1120.

If you know of an alum who does not use email or the computer but who would still enjoy receiving Traditions, please email Joanie with that information. Thank you!
 

The UAAA maintains the database of allUpper Arlington Alumni. At this time we have more than 30,000 records! This database is used by classes to contact their members for reunions or other events.

It is very important that you keep your address information current with the Alumni Office so your classmates won't "lose" you! Remember, classes do not keep their own class records; the Alumni Office is responsible for updating them.

To update our office with a new address or phone number, please email Joanie.

Our email database now contains more than 13,000 entries, having started out with merely 314 email addresses in 2001, when Bearalums.com was born. To update our office with a new or changed email address or name change, please email Ellen.

To update your CONTACT INFORMATION (mailing address, phone number), please email Joanie. Be sure to list your FULL name, address, home phone and class year.

To update your EMAIL ADDRESS on the Web site, please email Ellen and be sure to include your full name now, last name in high school, graduation year, and email address.
