Each year a foundation-managed award is presented to a graduating senior based on donations received in memory or honor of family and loved ones during the prior academic year. Award criteria generally include at a minimum that the recipient have good academic standing, be of good character, and represent the high school in a positive manner.

All memorial dollars are combined to provide this annual award, giving donors and the Education Foundation an opportunity to publicly honor loved ones with recognition during the Senior Awards Night ceremony which was held this year on May 8, 2024. The number of recipients varies from year to year.

Individuals to be remembered or honored during the presentation of the 2024 senior awards include the following:

In Memory of Helen Schoener Gilde and Robert Loose

In Honor of Jonathan Bond, 2024 Distinguished Alumnus

Congratulations to this year’s Memorial Award recipient, Otis Engel. Otis will be attending The Pennsylvania State University – University Park for Aerospace Engineering.
