About the
Hall of Fame
Grand Haven High School Hall of Fame
The GHHS Hall of Fame, hosted by the Grand Haven Schools Foundation (GHSF), was established in 2008 to honor graduates as well as those who have served our school district. Every three years, the Foundation honors and celebrates the success achieved by the selected Hall of Fame inductees by hosting an induction dinner and ceremony.
Our next Hall of Fame induction dinner and ceremony will take place in Fall 2028.
