Xenia Community Schools Hall of Honor 2023
The Xenia Community Schools Foundation will be recognizing the Class of 2023 Hall of Honor inductees on April 22nd at Tecumseh Elementary School. The event will include a dinner, induction ceremony and a silent auction. The Hall of Honor plaques display is located at the entrance to Xenia High School. The display honors those who have, as former students, community members and/or educators, achieved success in their careers, served the community and the schools and are role models for current and future generations of Xenia children. The display also serves as a motivator for students to realize the value of the education they are receiving, as well as their responsibility to make a significant difference in their world.

The Xenia Community Schools Foundation provides grants for classroom and teacher projects. Almost $25,000.00 was awarded for the 2022-2023 school year. Funded projects are geared towards enriching student learning. Some applications represent district-wide initiatives. All the grants for Xenia Community Schools’ students and teachers are beyond what regular school funding can provide.

The auction can be accessed at: https://www.32auctions.com/XCSF2023 . Many of the auction items are donated by school staff, XCSF Board of Directors and local businesses.
