As you’ve certainly heard by now, the Seattle police officer gunned down on Halloween night was a graduate of West Seattle High School. The school has helped pay tribute to Officer Tim Brenton — as described by assistant principal Jenni MacDonald on her website – and now, WSHS Alumni Association vice president Chris King says there’s a campaign to present a scholarship in memory of Officer Brenton – and they’re looking for others to pitch in:
On October 31st, 2009, Seattle Police Officer, Tim Brenton (WSHS Class of 1988) was shot, as he sat in his patrol car. We (WSHS Alumni Association) would like to present a 2010 scholarship in his honor. To do this we would need a minimum of $1000. If you would like to donate toward this scholarship, please send a donation to the WSHSAA, c/o West Seattle High School, 3000 California Ave SW, Seattle, WA. 98116. Please indicate it is for the Tim Brenton Scholarship. Make check payable to WSHSAA. All donations are tax-deductible.
Our citywide-media partners at the Seattle Times are closely covering the investigation into Officer Brenton’s murder; read the latest here.
