Hall of Famers Shine in Ceremony

Noblesville Schools inducted their first Hall of Fame class at a special dedication event Wednesday evening at their new Hall of Fame Courtyard.

Inaugural Hall of Fame Class of 2025 inductees include Dick Dellinger, Vickie Ely, Julia Kozicki, John Land, Bryan Mills, Tony Oilar, Rick Towle and Kathy Williams.

The district also recently announced their Class of 2026 honorees – Chris Beaver, Sally Crow, Fred Farley and Bruce Hitchcock. The Class of 2026 will have their dedication event this fall.

The district’s new Hall of Fame Courtyard is located between the Noblesville Schools Community Center and Beaver Stadium, and features an honoree monument, walking path, reflection benches and landscaping.

The courtyard was funded out of construction project savings from a bond (loan) with no increase to the tax rate and no classroom dollars. 

Generous donations also supported the courtyard, with Hagerman Group donating the concrete, and CCHA and The Peony Festival organization donating and planting peonies.

The Noblesville Schools Hall of Fame celebrates the legacy of those who have demonstrated exceptional service, support, accomplishments or contributions to Noblesville Schools, and is a collaboration between Noblesville Schools and the Noblesville Schools Education Foundation (NSEF).

Honorees are selected based on community nominations. Eligibility criteria, nomination guidelines and the application to nominate can be found here at https://www.noblesvilleschools.org/community/noblesville-schools-hall-of-fame
