Upper Dublin Medals

The Upper Dublin Medals Program honors exceptional members of the Upper Dublin community in the following categories:

Citizen
Educator
Community Business or Non-profit Organization
Student Leadership Award (2 students)

Nomination Process

Nominations for the program are submitted by the community to recognize outstanding individuals and organizations in our community. To ensure our selection committees can make well-informed decisions, all nominations should be thorough, well-documented, and thoughtfully prepared. Strong submissions should highlight the nominee’s achievements, contributions, and qualifications in detail, as selections will be based solely on the information provided.

Nominations submitted in the Citizen and Business/Non-Profit categories in 2026 will be retained for two years (the year of submission plus one additional year). Nominators will be contacted to provide updates as needed. Nominations in the Educator category will not carry over and must be resubmitted each year.

Additionally, previous Upper Dublin Medals winners cannot be honored again in the same category.

Criteria

To be considered, nominated candidates must meet the designated criteria.

Selection Committee

Each selection committee is made up of individuals from various community groups who review all nominations and meet collectively to select the recipient in their category. For the Student Leadership Awards, nominations are solicited from the high school staff through a separate process.
