The Highline School Board approved a request at its June 3 meeting to install a new plaque at the Evergreen High School track in honor of Tyrone Curry, former board member and former Evergreen staff member, coach and longtime volunteer.
Friends of Evergreen will host a ceremony next year, during cross country or track season to honor Tyrone’s contributions to Evergreen and to Highline Public Schools. Community fundraising is planned to cover the design, construction and installation of the plaque.
The following profile of Tyrone and his contributions was attached to the board agenda. It was signed by 17 community members and alumni, including members of classes from 1981 to as recent as 2029.
