On August 16, 1901, Los Nietos Valley Union
High School opened as the eleventh high school in the Los Angeles County
Schools system. In 1904, its first graduating class numbered four
students. This early institution eventually became Downey High High
School. Over the next 100 years, our graduates -- who literally number
in the thousands -- have made their way into society and have made an impact
on America and the world with their individual accomplishments. The
Hall of Fame committee hopes during the next few years to recognize as many of our distinguished
graduates as possible.
The Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony is designed to provide a
motivational activity that will engender school and community pride.
Further, it will emphasize our school's continuum of high achievers
by honoring outstanding and noteworthy alumni of Downey High School.
