25 Years of highlighting Integrity and Positive Attitude Celebrated at CSISD Senior Hall of Fame

byEF staff

College Station, TX -- The CSISD Education Foundation honored 60 graduating seniors and their chosen educators at the 25th annual Senior Hall of Fame banquet on Wednesday, April 3, 2024.

Honorees from A&M Consolidated, College Station, and College View High Schools were selected based on integrity, positive attitude, leadership, and dedication to their school. Senior candidates are voted on by the teachers from each high school, then the top 6% of those are honored. Each student honoree selects an educator who has been influential in their academic career and tributes them with an essay.    

“This inspirational event encourages future leaders and celebrates how teachers make an impact on their lives,” shared Education Foundation Board President Staci Cocanougher.

“Hall of Fame commemorates outstanding seniors and educators, and it’s a celebration of their efforts throughout their career in CSISD,” said Education Foundation Executive Director Teresa Benden. “It honors the hard work and dedication they show every day.”

The Title Sponsor of the event is the Barrett-Ashfield family. Additional sponsors include Caldwell Country Chevrolet, St. Joseph Health, Van Stavern Small Animal Hospital, Brazos Spine, Culpepper Realty, H-E-B, The Rife Law Firm, Stylecraft, and VLK Architects. A full list of sponsors, honorees and the complete program including all the student essays can be found at: https://givetokids.csisd.org/events-news/hall-of-fame/
