Last year was the first time alumni were named Distinguished. The first set of Distinguished alumni consisted of Linn Eignus, Larry Speck, Larry Taylor, Anita Griffon and Honorary Alumnus, Dr. Myrlene Kennedy.

Distinguished alumni are named with one of the Six Pillars of Character each.  A poster is made of the winners and then displayed in every classroom in all six campuses in FISD.
