Hall of Fame

The Anderson Education Foundation (AEF) established the Anderson Community Schools (ACS) Hall of Fame in 2010 to recognize, honor, and celebrate the successful lives of ACS graduates. To recognize more outstanding alumni, starting in 2026, this program will be held annually and not bi-annually. The next Hall of Fame class will be inducted on Saturday, October 24, 2026.

Nominations for the 2026 ACS Hall of Fame class closed on February 28, 2026. Members selected for the 2026 ACS Hall of Fame class will be announced in April 2026. For questions, and sponsorship inquiries, please contact: [email protected].
