Wall of Honor
To honor our legacy of excellence and inspire future generations, the Olathe Public Schools Alumni Association annually selects exceptional alumni for induction into the Wall of Honor. This prestigious recognition celebrates Olathe Public Schools graduates who have made significant, lasting contributions in their personal and professional lives, through community or humanitarian service, or by demonstrating a lifelong commitment to educational excellence.
Each year, a selection committee carefully reviews nominations and selects new honorees. Nominations are accepted year-round but must be submitted by March 1 to be considered for that year’s induction.
Eligible candidates must be graduates of Olathe Public Schools, have earned their diploma at least 20 years prior to nomination, and have achieved distinction in one or more of the aforementioned areas. In addition to the nomination form please include three letters of recommendation from several people explaining why this nominee deserves recognition on the Olathe Public Schools Alumni Association Wall of Honor.
A tribute to all inductees—including plaques and an interactive touch-screen kiosk—can be found in the lobby of the district’s Education Center, located at 14160 Black Bob Road, Olathe, KS, 66062.
