Nominate a Candidate for the Ken Fetter Memorial Contribution Award |
 Ken Fetter was a valued employee of the Heritage School who was tragically killed in a car accident after working at Heritage for many years. He was the type of employee who went above and beyond his job description. He truly cared for the students and the school, and put in hours working towards its improvement.
In 2000 the Upper School Student Government instituted an award in his memory to be given each year at Honors Day. The award is to recognize a Heritage family member who has dedicated time and contributed to the school above and beyond what is required of them. This award can go to a faculty member, staff member, board member, parent, etc.
We need your help in nominating candidates for the Ken Fetter Award. The nominees will be voted on by the Upper School student body. If you know of someone in the Heritage community who has the qualities that were exemplified in Mr. Fetter, please send this form with a brief description of why you think your candidate is deserving of the award. All nominations must be turned in to the office or to Maggie Ginn by Wednesday, April 28 in order to be considered. Thank you for your help.
Past Winners: Kathy Murphy, Rosalyn Boyd, Chuck Brown, Steve Campbell, Judith Griffith, Jeff Stuart, Glenda Davis, Marianne Richardson, Gail Jones, Otis Jones III |
