STARS Hall of Fame

Inductees and their accomplishments are recognized in a perpetual display at the district office and on the web sites of both the San Juan Education Foundation and the San Juan Unified School District.

Inductees

The San Juan Education Foundation recognizes individuals who have been successful professionally and who have given back to the community in a way that supports the development of our youth.

An Evening with the STARS

Installing the inductees into the STARS Hall of Fame takes place annually at the Evening with the STARS event at which inductees (or their families for posthumous awards) receive the STARS recognition award.

Reaching for the STARS

The San Juan Education Foundation has partnered with the San Juan Unified School District to challenge high school seniors to share their plans to “reach for the stars” and build on their SJUSD accomplishments to achieve success while giving back in a meaningful way to their community.
