- Shrewsburyalumni.org History Jim Cunavelis, a Shrewsbury resident and a graduate of a private high school, proposed the idea of the SHS Alumni
Association for SHS's size and the needs of its graduates. After several years of discussing his idea with former
Superintendent of Schools, Dr. John Collins, the idea came to life on October 13, 1993. The SHS Alumni Association thanks the former Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Anthony Bent, former SHS Principal, Dr.
Daniel Gutekanst and present Superintendent of Schools, Joseph Sawyer, and SHS Principal, Brian Reagan, for their continued
support.
Our Logo Look closely..... Our logo
is actually a two sided figure. This ingenious idea was developed by Deb Falzoi (SHS 1994). Notice the Colonial
on the left side... he represents the "SHS Colonial" community. Note the mortarboard on the right
side of the figure and the gown.... Our logo reflects our goal to "bring together all alumni and friends
of SHS graduates to promote the best interests of the schools and community..." The Colonial The "Colonial" is our official school emblem. It is
symbolic of Shrewsbury's heritage through the famous life of a colonial named Artemas Ward, and was designed for us by
the late well-known Worcester sports cartoonist, Al Banks. In the late 1950s, when the Shrewsbury High School (at
Oak Street) was opened, the "Colonial" was incorporated in the new school seal. This seal was put to use immediately
by being placed on class rings. Sue (Donahue) Falzoi ' SHS 1966
