Distinguished Alumni Award

The Distinguished Alumni Award is bestowed upon an individual alumni who has distinguished themselves and their alma mater. This award can be given for significant accomplishment in business or professional life and/or significant service to church, community, state, or nation in addition to sustained leadership and service to Holy Family Catholic School. Nominations are accepted annually and those submitted in previous years remain on file for reconsideration in subsequent years.

Any HFS alumni is eligible for this special honor. Family members, parishioners, friends, faculty, staff or students of HFS are invited to submit nominations for Distinguished Alumni. The Advancement committee then reviews all nominations and selects the recipient.

The nominee MUST:

  • Be a graduate of Holy Family School.
  • Be making a positive impact in the world.
  • Committed to Catholic education.
