What is the BSAA?

The Brighton Schools Alumni Association (BSAA) is a not-for-profit organization that aims to foster alumni relations for students of Brighton High School (BHS) and other schools in the Brighton Central School District (BCSD) in Rochester, NY. The BSAA is the brainchild of Bob Lambrix '57. Co-chair emeritus is Henry "Pete" French '53; current co-chairs are Pete Heinrich '55 and Maryjane Kimmell Link '58.  Members include representatives from more than a dozen graduation years. Membership currently is free, and is open to anyone who attended a public school in the BCSD.

The BSAA works closely with the webmaster of the Brighton High School alumni website (www.bhsalumni.net), where you can register your name with your class. If you haven't done that yet, feel free to use the "Alumni Registration" button at the left to do so.

What is the mission of the BSAA?

The Brighton Schools Alumni Association (BSAA) was founded in 1999 to recognize the heritage of Brighton schools and their contributions by:

• Promoting alumni relations
• Supporting the educational mission of Brighton public schools
• Preserving the tradition of educational excellence in the Brighton public schools
• Coordinating and supporting reunion activities
• Maintaining archival materials
• Initiating projects that recognize individual and class accomplishments

When does the BSAA meet?

The BSAA meets throughout the year at 7 p.m. on the first Tuesday of each month, usually at the Alumni Resource Center in the 12 Corners Elementary School building at 2035 Monroe Avenue. New members are always welcome.

BSAA holds at least two webcast conferences during the academic year as well - be sure to register at the alumni website to participate!

The BSAA is involved in a wide variety of projects and events, from enhancing the high school to honoring outstanding classmates. For information about BSAA projects and upcoming meetings, see the respective areas of this website.
