Honoring educators Joe White & Larry Wells and alumni Beatrice Thompson & Mike Shildt for their contributions to Olympic High School.

Join us for the second annual Order of the Trojan Induction Ceremony, where we will honor four remarkable individuals who have made a significant impact on Olympic High School. This special event will celebrate two distinguished educators, Joe White & Larry Wells, who dedicated many years to shaping the lives of our students, and two exceptional alumni, Beatrice Thompson & Mike Shildt, whose contributions have greatly enriched the school and its community.

The evening will begin with a welcome reception, allowing attendees to mingle with the inductees, current teachers, fellow alumni, and community members. Troy the Trojan, the beloved mascot funded by the Foundation, will make an appearance to add a touch of school spirit to the event. A delicious dinner will be provided, including a drink ticket for an adult beverage. After using the ticket, guests can enjoy a cash bar throughout the event.

The ceremony will feature the presentation of the Order of the Trojan medallions to the inductees, who will give heartfelt speeches about what Olympic High School has meant to them. Teachers who have received grants from the Foundation will also share their experiences about how the Foundation has impacted their work and their students. The event promises to be a memorable occasion, showcasing the impact of our Foundation's work and the enduring legacy of those we honor.

The event is free to attend with registration. Register to Attend.
