What Makes A Person Notable?

Why have a page that lists notable teachers and a page that lists notable students?

The Internet gives us a chance to have a listing in a subtle way, but with better detail that acknowledges the individuals first and foremost, with their achievements being listed after their names and years at Mount Lawley Senior High School.

Notable persons are ones who others comment about because of their achievements.

  • Position of increased importance because of excellence
    • in the education system (usually best known to teachers)
    • in the business community
    • in the community
  • Mentioned in various media because of their local, state, national or international
    • academic achievement
    • sporting achievement
    • awards
  • Notable persons are also ones whose names are known to the populace because of
    • notoriety
