Purpose

The Raider Athletic Hall of Fame was created in 2024 as a way to honor and recognize those who have made significant contributions to SCPS through athletics.

Governance

The Raider Athletic Hall of Fame will be governed by an Executive Committee, which includes the Director of Athletics, Assistant Athletic Director(s), one alumni representative, and the Head of School. The Selection Committee will include the longest-tenured SCPS program directors, one faculty representative (chosen by the Head of School), alumni representatives, and the Upper School Principal. Alumni and faculty representatives will each serve a three-year term. Members of each committee will receive one vote. If someone serves in multiple capacities, they will only receive one vote.

  • Athlete nominees will have a waiting period of at least five (5) years from the date of high school graduation.
  • Coach nominees should be at least one year removed from their last date of employment at SCPS.
  • Nominees will have made significant contributions to one or more athletic programs and athletes must have attended SCPS for a minimum of two school years.
  • Nominees exemplified the highest standards of sportsmanship, ethical conduct, and moral character during their athletic career at SCPS.
  • Nominees continue to exhibit excellence in their personal and professional lives after SCPS.
  • Nominations can be made by any member of the SCPS community.
  • Nominations should be submitted to the Athletic Director by October 1 using the Raider Athletic Hall of Fame nomination form. The nomination should include the year of graduation, sport(s) played, a list of outstanding contributions to his or her sport(s), and a written narrative from an individual that validates pertinent information related to the nominee.
  • The Executive Committee will vet all nominations before being presented to the Selection Committee.
  • Nominations will remain before the Selection Committee for two years (two cycles). Following this period, a candidate must receive ⅓ votes to remain eligible for induction.
  • All members of the Executive and Selection Committees shall be present to cast a vote unless previously excused by the Director of Athletics.
  • Nominees submitted may be selected for induction, tabled, or denied further consideration.
  • The vote for induction into the Raider Athletic Hall of Fame requires a ⅔ majority vote.
  • The vote to deny future consideration requires a simple majority of 50% plus one.
  • Votes will be taken by secret ballot.
  • Decisions will be revealed in January, and a recognition ceremony will follow.

A member can be removed from the Raider Athletic Hall of Fame by a ⅔ vote from the Selection Committee for behavior that is deemed unacceptable to the Raider Athletic Hall of Fame. The Director of Athletics will inform any member whose membership has been revoked, and his/her plaque will be removed.
