Distinguished Alumni

Think of someone you know who exemplifies the values, tradition, and successes of Raymore-Peculiar High School. It must be someone who graduated from RPHS, Raymore High School, or Peculiar High School, at least 10 years ago.

The Raymore-Peculiar Public School Foundation would like to honor and recognize these outstanding individuals with the annual Distinguished Alumni Award. 

Anyone may nominate a graduate for consideration.
