In addition to bestowing DeSales' highest honor to three outstanding members of the DeSales community, the Hall of Honors Awards dinner included three new awards: the Outstanding Service Award, recognizing an individual's special dedication to DeSales over the past year; the President's Award, recognizing an exemplary faculty or staff member at DeSales; and the Young Alumnus Award, recognizing a graduate within the past 10 years who has brought distinction on himself and DeSales.

History
The DeSales Hall of Honors was established in 1992 to recognize members of the DeSales Community who have brought honor to themselves or to DeSales through exemplary achievements or dedication to the school. From 1992 to 2009, thirty-five DeSales alumni and former faculty/staff members have been inducted into the Hall of Honors.

Over that time, five individuals have also been selected for the “Lifetime Service Award", a special honor that recognizes individuals who have committed many years of their life to the mission of DeSales High School, doing all the little things without public recognition. In 2008, a special "Honorary Alumnus" award was bestowed.
