We accept nominations for Distinguished Alumni at any time. Nominations are typically reviewed in the winter and selected in early spring. To nominate a deserving individual, click the button above.


The Distinguished Alumni Award recognizes individuals who have placed a high priority on education and service to others, becoming role models for this and future generations. Dr. Jon Swenson, a Stillwater Area High School principal, initiated this award in 1987.

A committee, through a nomination process, selects the award recipients each year. The committee is chaired by the Stillwater Area High School Principal and composed of ISD 834 personnel, a Partnership Plan representative, community members, and Stillwater Alumni. The selected honorees will be inducted into the Stillwater Area High School Hall of Fame, and be recognized at a reception hosted by The Partnership Plan on June 9, 2023. Recipients will also be honored at the Stillwater Area High School Commencement Ceremony on June 10, 2023.

Plaques of Distinguished Alumni are permanently hung near the main rotunda at Stillwater Area High School. The plaques afford current Stillwater students an opportunity to read about the successful life paths former SHS and SAHS students have taken after graduation.
