Liberty inducts first seven members to the Wall of Fame

The Liberty Central School District honored the inaugural members of the Liberty Wall of Fame and their families with a breakfast reception and unveiling ceremony on Saturday, June 25th. The Wall of Fame was established to honor outstanding Liberty alumni and employees as well as community members who have made a lasting contribution to society, the district and the Liberty community.

The inductees together with family and friends gathered for a breakfast reception at the new Liberty High School Media Center and then proceeded to the David E. Panebaker Auditorium lobby for the unveiling of the new Wall of Fame. Inductees were also recognized by Superintendent Michael B. Vanyo at the Class of 2011 graduation ceremony, which took place that morning at 10 a.m. in the Robert VanSlyke Gymnasium.

“I am the person I am today because of Liberty," said Inductee Howard K. Schue (Class of 1959). "It gave me the foundation for all that I have accomplished in my life, and for that I am extremely grateful."

Nominations will be accepted for the 2012 group beginning later this summer, and will be accepted and considered on a yearly basis.
