Each year, the Warren County Public Schools district pays tribute to graduates of Warren County who have distinguished themselves through their professional, civic and/or humanitarian contributions and accomplishments.

Dozens of outstanding individuals who have excelled in professions such as law, medicine, education, athletics, military achievement, entertainment and many others have been inducted into the Hall of Distinguished Alumni.

  • Anyone may nominate a Warren County Public Schools graduate so long as the nominee graduated at least fifteen (15) years prior to the date of the nomination.
  • A nomination shall be considered for a five (5) year period or until induction, whichever first occurs. A nominee not selected during the five (5) year period may be re-nominated for additional five (5) year periods.
