Calling ALL Hornets ~

It's time to help HISD find more CHAMPIONS to honor!!
The purpose of the Hall of Champions is to acknowledge the outstanding lifetime achievements of former Huntsville Hornets in a variety of categories. The honor reflects personal and professional accomplishments, as well as larger contributions to our society at a local, state, national, or international level. Honorees are role models and represent Champions in life - the “best of the best” among Hornet Alumni, former HISD employees and former HISD trustees. This year's chosen Champions will be inducted into the HISD HALL OF CHAMPIONS Class of 2026 during at a varsity football game this coming season.

Please submit your Hall of Champions nominations today!

The nomination deadline is Friday, August 14, 2026, to be considered for this fall's recognition.
