Hall of Fame

What is the Hall of Fame?

The Harvard Community Education Foundation (HCEF) and Harvard District 50 have established the Hall of Fame to honor distinguished alumni of Harvard High School. This recognition is given to individuals who have made significant contributions to their community or achieved notable success in their professional careers. The Hall of Fame serves to celebrate the accomplishments of these individuals and inspire current students by showcasing the impact that Harvard High School graduates can have in various fields and community endeavors.

Nominations

We are currently taking nominations for the Hall of Fame class. To be eligible for nomination to the Hall of Fame, a candidate must have graduated from Harvard High School ten or more years prior to the nomination date and must meet one or more of the criteria listed on the application form. (Candidates currently employed by District 50 or serving on the Foundation Board of Directors are discouraged.)

Up to four candidates will be selected from the nominations received. Hall of Fame inductees will be honored at a student assembly in late fall and in a permanent display at Harvard High School. Inductees and a guest will also receive free tickets to the Black & Gold Ball usually held the second week in November.
