Hall of Fame 2020 Honorees
We are proud to announce our inductees for the 2020 Summerville High School Hall of Fame. This is a group of outstanding students who made extraordinary contributions on many different levels while at Summerville.
Selections were made by the Hall of Fame Committee, a group of 10 local community members, who collectively have over 235 years of experience in working with Summerville students and alumni. They met during the summer months and worked together to review a large number of nominations. This year the committee chose to focus on the decades of the 1980’s, and 1990’s in order to fill the gap missing from the original Hall of Fame.
