Nominations are open for the Kansas City, Kan., Public Schools’ 2015 Reasons to Believe Alumni Honor Roll, part of a coordinated plan to spotlight alumni successes to encourage and inspire today’s students.
KCKPS established the Reasons to Believe program in 2002 to generate pride and celebrate the progress being made throughout the district, a district spokesman said.
The Alumni Honor Roll annually showcases the high caliber of graduates that the district produces and brings a select group of them together with staff, students, community members, colleagues and key leaders for a night of honors in November, the spokesman said.
Nominees must:
· Be graduates of a KCKPS high school
· Be successful in their chosen business, profession or life work
· Be a person of integrity and stature that KCKPS would take pride in recognizing
· Have demonstrated the importance of their education from KCKPS
