To be eligible, an individual must have: attended HVRHS for at least two years; have graduated from HVRHS; been an alumnus for at least 10 years; made significant contributions in their chosen field, in volunteer service, or significant contributions to the HVRHS/Region 1community; and modeled high standards of excellence in personal and/or professional life.

The Alumni Association Board of Directors established the Alumni Wall of Honor in 2017 to honor HVRHS graduates who evidence strong character traits, personal/professional achievements, given significant volunteer service, or have made significant contributions to HVRHS/Regional District 1.

Up to 10 individuals are honored at an induction ceremony held every other
year, alternating with the HVRHS Athletic Hall of Fame inductions.

Posthumous nominations will be accepted.

​ This year’s induction ceremony is scheduled for Nov. 9.

The concept of the Alumni Wall of Honor was brought forward by then Vice Principal, Ian Strever.

Through discussions with the Alumni Association Board regarding criteria and the selection process, the program was adopted in the spring of 2017.

Nomination forms can be found online and mailed Housatonic Valley Regional High School Alumni Association, 246 Warren Turnpike Road, Falls Village, CT 06031, or emailed to jlang@hvrhs.org. Nominations may also be made online.
