Centennial Sweater Campaign
In celebration of Cranston East’s 100-Year Centennial, the Thunderbolt Alumni Association is launching a special fundraiser to honor our history, fuel school spirit, and raise funds for the current and future students and faculty at Cranston East!
In 1925 the first cornerstone was laid at 899 Park Ave to build our school. After two years of construction, the very first class graduated from our school building in 1927. Cranston East Principal Tom Barbieri is planning many ways to celebrate 100 years of Bolts starting with a Centennial Kickoff at Homecoming in Fall 2025 and continuing through graduation in 2027. Make the most of these Centennial Celebrations with Cranston East and Bolt Alumni! Donate today & wear your Centennial sweater with pride at all the upcoming events!

As a thank you for your generosity, donors who contribute $100 or more will receive a custom, heirloom-quality Centennial Sweater.
