Who supports and pays for this website?

The Arcadia High Alumni Association is a member supported, non profit organization. Our mission is to help coordinate reunions, bring our members alumni news, and provide scholarships to the students of Arcadia High School. ArcadiaApaches.com became one group, when it merged with The Arcadia High School Alumni Association, in May of 2001. The Alumni Association pays for all of the expenses required to keep this website online. We rely on Arcadia alumni for support, and also receive help from alumni volunteers who donate their time to keep this site running. Although our Alma Mater, Arcadia High School has been supportive of our efforts, they do not in any way contribute to this website.   
 

Who are the sponsors? How do I become one?

The sponsors are Arcadia High School graduates helping to support us. Most of our sponsors are individuals, who help us out by making their tax free donations online. Some sponsors are business owners who have donated to the alumni association, and in return have received a link from our website to theirs. We welcome both individuals and businesses who want to become sponsors. This website and the Arcadia High School Alumni Association, cannot survive without support from generous Arcadia Alumni. Currently the majority of all donations are made online using PayPal, while some Arcadia Alumni choose to donate via mail. We greatly appreciate all that Arcadia Alumni are doing to help us! 
     
  

 What about the yearbook pictures? Where do I find my graduation photo?

ArcadiaApaches.com proudly displays 40 yearbooks, 1952-1991. To our knowledge, every graduation photo within those years, is online. Because there are numerous pages containing more that 20,000 AHS graduates, it is possible some photos were not uploaded to the website. If you believe that a photo is lost or missing, please contact us at
  Support@ArcadiaApaches.org You can also look in the camera shy section of the yearbooks (most are listed under "C" for camera shy), or on the last page of each year. Because scanning is a time consuming process, not every page of every yearbook is included on the website. Our primary goal was to be certain that every graduation photo from 1952-1991 was available for all to view. Unfortunately today's technology still requires us to scan and touchup one page at a time. The challenges we faced in deciding how many photos to display, involve complicated issues like bandwidth, disk space, and file maintenance. We are proud of the fact that we have 1.9 gigabytes of yearbook photos, making this the largest alumni website of its type on the internet. In the future we hope to display the 1992 -2002 yearbooks, provided we have the funds to do so. 
 

What is the Arcadians Forum? Is it the same as ArcadiaApaches.com? 

The Arcadians Forum began in December of 2000. Most of our early members came from other alumni websites like Classmates.com. Over the last year, our forum has seen rapid growth, and has been ranked in the top 30 of Delphi's "Education & Alumni Popular Forums". The message boards are maintained by alumni volunteers, but the forum itself is operated by Delphi-Prospero. It's free to join the Arcadians Forum. Although there are other message board services, we  continue to host on Delphi because it is safe, free and reliable.  The Arcadians Forum is not officially a part of ArcadiaApaches.com, but is maintained by many of the same volunteers. If you have any questions about the forum, please contact us at  Support@ArcadiaApaches.org or View Delphi's FAQ
