The Anderson Education Foundation invites you to join us on October 24, 2026 at Anderson High School from 1-3pm for the 8th Annual ACS Hall of Fame—an event that celebrates the accomplishments of Anderson Community Schools alumni while investing in the students of today. This year, we will be inducting 8 exceptional ACS alumni:

Ashlee Davis, HHS 2003

Anthony Harris, AHS 1973

Michele Jackson, MHHS 1993

Jo (Jody) Walker Pierce, AHS 1968

Darla Sallee, AHS 1990

Marion Teixera, HHS 1973

Brooks Townsend, AHS 1958

Jason Williamson, MHHS 1993

A few years ago, a 16-year-old student shared that he didn’t see people who looked like him succeeding in his own community. That moment continues to shape our work. Every year, the Hall of Fame helps change that narrative by connecting students with real, local role models whose stories inspire possibility and pride. It also raises valuable funds we can use to pour back into our schools for hands-on experiences, classroom supplies and funding to help every kid participate fully in their education.

Sponsorships and ticket costs will all go back towards the work that Anderson Education Foundation does to support Anderson Community Schools. Sponsorships start at $500 and go all the way up to $5000. Tickets cost $25. You can sponsor a table for 8 of your friends for $250!

Checks can be sent to Anderson Education Foundation, 1600 Hillcrest Ave. Anderson, IN 46011. Make sure to include your contact information so I can coordinate your sponsor benefits.
