Throughout this month, people can submit nominations for the 2022 Pathfinder Alumni Awards, which honor Mercer Island High School (MIHS) graduates whose achievements, strength of character and citizenship inspire and challenge today’s youth.

The Mercer Island School District established the awards in 2016 and nominations will close on Jan. 31. For information on how to submit a nomination, visit https://www.mercerislandschools.org/domain/1722. Candidates must be graduates of MIHS and have graduated at least 10 years prior. Posthumous nominations will be accepted.

“The Pathfinder honors our graduates’ remarkable impact in a variety of fields, including the arts, athletics, business, education, entertainment, law, medicine, the military, philanthropy and volunteerism, public service, scholarship and science,” reads the district website.

A selection committee will choose the recipients, who will be honored as part of the Mercer Island Schools Foundation spring event and on the Pathfinder Award wall at MIHS.
