The new high school building is rising fast—and thanks to alumni support, the stadium track replacement and Competition Gym facelift have begun, too.

While the state covers the academic building, the Performing Arts Center and gym upgrades are only possible through community investment. That’s where the Legacy Projects come in.

Check out updated renderings and learn how you can be part of shaping Finneytown’s future.

We’ve passed $1.5 million raised—and the transformation is already underway. From fresh paint and new bleachers in the Competition Gym to upgraded lighting and tech in the Performing Arts Center, the Legacy Projects are coming to life thanks to alumni like you.

It all started with a simple whisper in an art museum: “Finneytown wipes this out.” That moment sparked the idea for a pictorial history book capturing the spirit, architecture, and stories of Finneytown—a place unlike any other.

Written by longtime residents Rick Kennedy and Mark Evans, Images of America: Finneytown is more than just a collection of vintage photos. It’s a journey through the soul of a community—from its earliest settlers to the boom of the 1960s, from Pringle Drive to the PAC. And every page supports the future: all proceeds go directly to the Legacy Project to restore Finneytown’s iconic gym and performing arts center.

This year marks exciting developments for the Finneytown Alumni Network, with a focus on Legacy Projects to revitalize the Performing Arts Center and Competition Gym, preserving spaces that have shaped generations. Proceeds from the upcoming book, Images of America: Finneytown, will directly support these efforts, ensuring these facilities continue to inspire future Wildcats. Alumni and community members are invited to join this meaningful initiative to leave a lasting legacy for Finneytown.

Join us in honoring Finneytown's legacy as we break ground on a new 7-12 school. Our history of excellence continues with this state-of-the-art facility, set to open in 2026. Help us build the future by supporting the new building project or renovating the Gym and PAC.
