About RHSAA
Foster the proud tradition of Reno High School by strengthening ties between alumni, current students, teachers and our community
Our Mission
Continue to build and maintain relationships between Reno High School alumni, faculty, students and share our proud heritage with the Reno community.
RHSAA
The Project, as well as the Reno High School Alumni Association itself, owes its creation to Bud Beasley. With the help of friends at a high school reunion, he pitched the idea of an alumni association to preserve the school’s tradition and memorabilia.
-
