Ninety Six School District Hall of Fame

Ninety Six School District Hall of Fame 

1. The Hall of Fame is for those individuals who have outstanding achievements or contributions in athletics, academics, arts, education, or in service to the Ninety Six School District, (including Ninety Six and Edgewood High). A Hall of Fame candidate would have received awards and recognition above the All-Region or All-Conference level in athletics, state or national honors in academics, arts, or during years of service as an educator, or has provided invaluable years of devoted service as a volunteer that added enrichment to the school community. 

These individuals will be of high achievement and good character. If a person is nominated based on school merits, they must be fifteen years removed from graduation. If a person is nominated for their coaching/director merits, they must be retired or five years removed from employment from the Ninety Six School District. If a person is nominated for their service to the school community, they must have at least ten years of service. 

2. Candidates for the Hall of Fame must be nominated. There will be a deadline for nominations. The person completing the nomination is responsible for supplying the Hall of Fame Committee with all pertinent information that would serve to qualify the nominee for membership in the Hall of Fame. 

Nominating information should include all relevant statistics, awards and recognition. All nomination information must be documented through newspaper clippings, yearbook, etc. Statistics must be documented. Candidates cannot be considered without documentation.

The nominator is responsible for providing the committee with copies of the information. All photos, etc. will be returned but the committee cannot be responsible for valuable or irreplaceable items.
