CCSD Calls for Nominations for CCSD Educators Hall of Fame Class of 2025
The Cherokee County School District is calling for nominations of outstanding retired educators for its hall of fame!
The CCSD Educators Hall of Fame recognizes retired educators who made significant contributions during their career in CCSD and left a lasting positive impact on the lives of students, colleagues and our community.
The nonprofit foundation, which supports CCSD with fundraising and advocacy, began the hall of fame in 2016 with nominations made by its board. While CCEF continues to fund the program through its sponsorship, the hall of fame now is overseen by CCSD with the call for nominations from the community.
Current members of the CCSD Educators Hall of Fame are: Dr. Susan Buice, Letitia Cline, Marguerite Cline, Jackie Hopkins, Pete Jones, Patsy Jordan, Gene Norton, Dr. Frank R. Petruzielo, Janice Prather, Frankie Shepherd, the late Lee R. Tippens and Carolyn Turner.
As many as 10 winners who meet the judging committee’s expectations of excellence will be selected into a class each year. Additionally, any educator honored by CCEF as one of its two Alumni of the Year award winners will continue to be automatically inducted into the hall of fame. Dr. Susan Padgett-Harrison, who was honored as an Alumni of the Year in March, will be inducted into the Hall of Fame this year.
Class of 2025 inductees will be notified in mid to late January 2025 and honored in February with a celebratory reception.
Nominations may be made through Dec. 31, 2024 by using the online form at https://bit.ly/CCSDHallofFame25. Nominees must be retired CCSD educators (teacher, certified district administrator, Superintendent of Schools) who served a minimum of 20 years with the district or served as Superintendent; posthumous nominees will be accepted. There is no minimum number of years for which a nominee must be retired, and they do not have to reside in Cherokee County. A nominator may make one nomination.
