Brick Township High School Wall Of Fame Seeking Nominees

BRICK, NJ — The Brick Township High School Wall of Fame committee is looking for nominees for induction as the class of 2017.

"The purpose of the BTHS Wall of Fame, created in 2004, is to promote pride in our school and honor graduates or those affiliated with the school for outstanding achievements or noteworthy service," the group said. "There have been many years of students, faculty, staff, and local citizens that have either walked through the halls of BTHS or provided support to the student body in some capacity. Many of the names and faces are recognizable and well known. Others, however, make their mark on society after they graduate. The Brick Township High School Wall of Fame was created to pay honor to alumni, staff members, and others, not necessarily graduates, who have achieved and served as role models for the students who walk through the halls of BTHS."

Nominees must meet at least one of the following criteria for nomination, according to the group's Facebook page:

• Be a BTHS graduate of at least 10 years who distinguished him/herself for excellence in academics or extracurricular activities
• A former staff member who exhibited exceptional leadership, character, and accomplishment throughout his/her career
• A graduate who has achieved notable accomplishments since graduating from BTHS
• Someone, not necessarily a graduate, who has offered loyal and devoted service or support to BTHS

Inductees are selected by the nine-member Wall of Fame Committee. Applications can be submitted at any time during the school year and will remain on file for future consideration for a period of three years.

Applications can be found on the BTHS Wall of Fame Facebook page and completed applications may be mailed to:

William J. Kleissler, Principal
Brick Township High School
346 Chambers Bridge Rd.
Brick, N.J. 08723

The BTHS Wall of Fame Committee has designed guidelines and standards to create a Wall of Fame that we
believe will make everyone associated with BTHS, past, present, or future, proud to support, thegroup says.

The deadline to submit nominations is Jan. 13.

Past inductees include legendary football coach Warren H. Wolf, interim superintendent Thomas Gialanella, and longtime school nurse Beverly Wilson, among many others.
