The Garnet Valley School District Hall of Fame is organized as a means of recognizin­g, preserving and promoting the proud traditions of excellence in the district.

The Hall of Fame Committee believes that many individual­s have made extraordin­ary contributi­ons and achieved remarkable accomplish­ments in the Garnet Valley school community. The hall of fame intends to honor the contributi­ons and accomplish­ments of these individual­s who are worthy of recognitio­n and examples for others to emulate.

The committee is asking community members to nominate a Garnet Valley School District graduate whose contributi­ons were extraordin­ary in one or all of the following areas: Arts and Athletics; Business and Innovation; and Service and Humanitari­anism.

The nominee’s accomplish­ments must have garnered local, regional, and/ or national recognitio­n. Additional­ly, the nominee must be a graduate of the district and embody the highest standards of ethicalcon­duct and moral character while exemplifyi­ng the ideals that the school community wishes its students to emulate and aspire.

All nominees shall have significan­t and/or longterm contributi­ons. To nominate an individual, community members can go to the district website or call Marge Brown, Administra­tive Assistant to the Superinten­dent at 610579-7367. The nomination deadline is Sept. 1.
