Community member proposes England High School Hall of Honor; board asks him to continue planning
Summary
Kevin Scribner proposed a Hall of Honor to archive alumni achievements and host an annual induction; the board discussed scope, display locations and funding and encouraged him to continue developing the plan rather than vote tonight.
Kevin Scribner presented a community proposal to establish an England High School Hall of Honor — a physical or digital archive intended to preserve district history, celebrate alumni achievements and create an annual induction event to boost community pride and student motivation.
Scribner described a foundation to oversee the project, proposed funding through table sales and sponsorships (example pricing cited: table of 10 for $350, $35 per individual) and recommended a board composed of district administrators, residents and alumni. He said the hall would recognize a broad set of achievements — not solely athletic or "white-collar" accomplishments — and suggested placing honors in a visible district location or in the high school.
Board members asked how far back inductees would be considered; Scribner said the intent was to include the district’s full history. Several members recalled trophies and banners lost during building remodeling and agreed preserving memorabilia would help connect current students to local legacy. The board did not vote on a formal motion but asked Scribner to proceed with planning and return with more details when ready.
