**New Distinguished Alumni Honors**

With the creation of our "Hall of Excellence" located in the main hallway of the high school, we've created the "Distinguished Alumni Honor."

ITHS Distinguished Alumni Honors

The Distinguished Alumni Honor is bestowed upon those who have made a difference in the world of science, the arts, technology, education, public service or journalism. The recipients names are engraved on a perpetual plaque which was donated by the class of 1963. For details and photos please click on "Distinguished Honorees" on the left. Below are award recipients to date.

TIMOTHY COURTNEY
Class of 1962
Public Service
2013

BARRY LEINER
Class of 1963
Internet Technology
2014

 ITHS is in the process of announcing future recipients. However, if you know of someone you would like to submit for consideration for this prestigious award, please e-mail Alumni (alumni@islandtrees.net) with the name of the nominee, year of graduation, a brief summary of accomplishments, your e-mail and the nominee's e-mail. Please remember that this is awarded for outstanding accomplishments i.e. Mr. Courtney's distinctive public service to Nassau County for over 50 years and Dr. Leiner's induction into the worldwide Internet Hall of Fame in Berlin, Germany. We look forward to your input.

The Island Trees Alumni Heroes Scholarship

This scholarship was established to memorialize two graduates killed on 9/11. FDNY Kevin Smith, Class of ’72 and NYPD Claude Daniel Richards, Class of 1973 who perished while saving others at the WTC. If you get a chance to stop by the high school, you will see two plaques in the main lobby detailing their lives. Each and every day, students are reminded of the heroic paths they chose after leaving the doors of ITHS.

Donations to Student Scholarships

Each year, faculty, students and staff raise funds in order to grant scholarships to deserving graduating seniors. However, with today’s economic climate, the task has become more and more difficult to accomplish. If you, or someone you know would like to donate to one of our existing scholarships or perhaps set up a scholarship, please contact us at alumni@islandtrees.net. The following are some of the scholarships awarded each year.
