Approved this year by the Board of
Education, the Hall of Fame is a way of maintaining the rich
heritage and tradition of the district’s successful academic,
athletic and extracurricular programs. The Hall of Fame honors the
contributions and accomplishments of these individuals who are
worthy of recognition as examples for others to emulate.
The Hall of Fame will serve as a means
of recognizing, preserving and honoring individuals who made
significant contributions in academics, athletics, music, performing
arts or other extracurricular activities at our high schools, and
alumni who have excelled through their community involvement or in
the business world.
Hall of Fame members also will be
selected in two additional categories: administrators, coaches and
teachers who demonstrated exceptional leadership, character and
achievement during their careers; and contributors who have been
loyal and devoted supporters of the district.
All nominations are welcome and must be
received by the Hall of Fame Selection Committee by Friday, July
10. You can download the nomination form and nomination criteria
