Local education leaders are looking for nominees for the 2013 class of Crittenden County Schools Distinguished Alumni Awards, which will be presented before graduation in the spring. Both living and posthumous awards can be given.
Nominations may be made through Oct. 15, and selections will be determined by educational, professional and communities service accomplishments. The five-member selection panel will announce the honorees later this winter.
Anyone may nominate an individual. Recipients of the award must have graduated high school from a Crittenden County school. Applications are available online on the school district's website at www.crittenden.k12.ky.us or you may download the PDF by this link.
Past honorees have included authors, legislators, educators, research specialists, historians, geologists and scientists.
Any nominee not inducted will be considered by the committee for three years after the initial nomination is submitted. They will not need to be renominated until after that three years is up.
