Hall of Fame

The original Hall of Fame was established in Fall 2017.  The Hall of Fame recognizes and honors outstanding alumni that the Indiana Area High School has produced over the years.  The inductees have distinguished themselves and brought fame or recognition to the Indiana Area School District through their accomplishments or contributions in the areas of academics, the arts, athletics, business leadership, civic duty, and military service.  In honoring these individuals and teams, we are able to celebrate outstanding accomplishments, recognize excellence in a given area, and promote community pride within our school district.

*Alumni should have made a significant contribution to their profession/category, and must have graduated from Indiana Area Senior High School.

Step 2 – Selection

* The Hall of Fame committee will collect the information and will forward the nominations in each category to the IHS Me to We Club students.  

Step 3 – Final Round

* Finalist will be notified and asked to submit a 1–2 minute video of pre-determined content.  (If the finalist is deceased, the person that nominated the candidate will need to complete the video requirement.) The committee will request a current or last photo of the nominated individual.
