Due to the closing of Evarts High School, we endured a transition period and for a couple of years we simply did not have the opportunity or resources to get the school ready for upcoming reunions. We are pleased to announce that the Multipurpose Center - Cloverfork Club for Progress and Education has purchased EHS and renovation/repair efforts to the old section of the school have been and are still underway. In the near future, they hope to receive assistance from the Evarts High School Alumni and Scholarship Association and EHS Alumni. When the school closed it was in the best shape it had seen in many, many years. Without an opportunity to purchase the school or provide the community/area businesses with a chance to utilize it in some capacity, it was left vacant and the effects of vandalism, theft, lack of heat, etc. had taken their toll. We continue to face numerous challenges but would like to announce that EHS, as it has been for the past several years, will once again host the Annual Labor Day Reunion.

 

Scholarships and Donations

 

As of 2023, the Evarts Alumni & Scholarship Association has given approximately $614,784 dollars in scholarships to Cloverfork  students. In 2023, we provided $10,000 in scholarships and hope to provide more in 2024! 

​

When factoring in matching scholarships, we estimate that over one million dollars has been provided over the years! Each year that passes by, our resources become fewer and we do not have the money to give to the students like we used to. We ask that if you can, please make a donation and/or start an annual scholarship to help these students who are so deserving. We have established a PayPal account that will allow you to make secure donations of any amount and will provide a donation receipt. Look for the 'Donate'

button and QR code at the bottom of every page. You can also make donations in person during the Reunion or via mail by sending them to Arlene Brown, PO Box 166, Evarts, KY 40828.

We attempt to gather as much information as possible regarding alumni that have passed on and get that out to everyone. Surely we miss some and never look forward to completing this part of our website nor sharing the information to our photo galleries on Facebook. If you have someone that you would like to add to the Deceased List, please send that information to Arlene Brown at akbrown@windstream.net. As we complete the deceased listings, you will be able to view and download them below.
