In November 2025, a McDowell alumnus reached out to MEF to explore the idea of creating banners to honor our Alumni Veterans. After thoughtful planning, we have developed something a little different—an enduring tribute to those who have served our country. We look forward to unveiling this special project in November 2026. This initiative is designed to grow over time, allowing additional alumni to be recognized and included in a timely and meaningful way.

Millcreek and McDowell High Schools share a long-standing connection to military service through their distinguished AFJROTC program and the countless alumni who have answered the call to serve our nation. This project stands as a lasting testament to their dedication, sacrifice, and commitment to protecting the freedoms we all cherish. Thank you for joining us in this journey. The Millcreek Education Foundation, with the support of McDowell High School Administrators and AFJROTC, are excited to offer a lasting legacy to these courageous individuals.
