History

The Ripley High Alumni Association was organized in 1982. The main purpose of this organization is to reward outstanding graduates of Ripley High School for their accomplishments and to encourage them to pursue their studies and training in higher institutions of learning.

The RHS Alumni Association honors graduates in other ways as well. A huge banner that recognizes veterans who have graduated from Ripley High School is displayed at various events throughout the year. The Alumni Association hosts a tailgate party at the homecoming, supports project graduation, takes part in an all-class reunion during the Fourth of July's Class Act held on the court house lawn, and various projects as needed.
