The Alumni Association recognizes FHS graduates who have demonstrated exemplary performance and made significant accomplishments in their professional career, or have made significant contributions in the area of philanthropy and/or public service. The awards are presented in October, every other year (in odd years) at the Annual Distinguished Alumni Banquet hosted in conjunction with FHS homecoming activities.
