Knights Hall of Fame

Salina Catholic Schools and Sacred Heart Jr./Sr. High School recognizes the ultimate measure of our success is the success of our alumni after graduation.  And, we know we are who we are because of our current families and faculty. We are blessed as a school community by our collective accomplishments.  With that in mind, we established the Knights Hall of Fame in September 2024 to recognize the extraordinary accomplishments of our alumni while both in school and after graduation.

To be placed on the Knights Hall of Fame Ballot, individuals, teams, and/or classes must be nominated prior to May 31st of the given year.  Nominees can be recognized for their accomplishments while at the school or for significant accomplishments post-graduation.  Post-humous nominations are welcome.
