With the renovation of Egan Junior High School close to completion, alumni and past and present families can make their personal mark on the campus while helping raise funds for the school’s Parent-Teacher Association.

Dee Gibson, a former Egan PTA president, has been selling commemorative bricks for $100, and people can have whatever they like engraved on them. Each brick has three lines with 13 spaces on each line.

She has sold 190 bricks so far, which were just recently installed between the new multi-use and administration buildings on campus. She hopes to sell more.

“It looks really nice,” Gibson said. “We still have space for the next generation. It’s not too late to be memorialized in front of the multi.”

When Gibson began the fund-raiser two years ago, the PTA was working to raise funds for landscaping the newly renovated campus.

“We first thought we would need money to fund grass, shrubs and trees on campus, and our thought was to save money in that direction,” Gibson said. “Fortunately, we got that to happen for us.

“Our projects at the moment are not defined. But the money we raise is going to go toward the continued beautification of the new facility.”

For questions about the fund-raiser, call Gibson at 948-0518. Order forms for bricks may be picked up in the Egan School office at 100 West Portola Ave.
