Distinguished Alumni Awards

Distinguished Alumni Awards

The Distinguished Alumni awards have been created in an effort to recognize graduates of Ticonderoga High School who have succeeded in their personal and professional lives. Alumni selected will have distinguished themselves by virtue of their contributions to community and/or society as well as to their careers.

 A goal of the awards is to introduce positive role models to the Ticonderoga High School community. The achievements of these outstanding alumni should inspire students and encourage them to adopt high aspirations.

How does someone get nominated as a distinguished alumnus?

Prospective Distinguished Alumni are nominated by people like you. Each year the Alumni Committee will select awardees based on nominations submitted by Ticonderoga community members, families, alumni, as well as faculty and staff.

If you know of a prestigious alumnus who has distinguished himself/herself through career, community service, and/or socially responsible endeavors, who will be a positive role model for students, and who is a graduate of Ticonderoga High School 10 or more years ago, please fill out the attached nomination form.

Honoring those individuals who have made a difference

Nominees will be considered by the Nomination Committee which consists of Ticonderoga Alumni and faculty. A special induction ceremony will be held during the Annual Alumni Golf Tournament Weekend at the end of July. The Committee reserves the right to request additional information from nominees.
