MSHSL associate director
Lisa Lissimore received one of the most prestigious awards in high school
activities circles Wednesday when she was awarded an NFHS Citation. She was
among eight
leaders in state high school associations who received National Federation of
State High School Associations (NFHS) Citations. The eight individuals were
approved by the NFHS Board of Directors at its meeting last
month.
An award designed to
honor individuals who have made contributions to the NFHS, state high school
associations, athletic director and coaching professions, the
officiating avocation and fine arts/performing arts programs, the
NFHS Citation is one of the most highly regarded achievements in high school
athletics and performing arts. The 2021 Citation recipients received their
awards at the annual NFHS Summer Meeting in Orlando, Florida.

of Fame and several recognition programs for high school
students. Lissimore has served on several NFHS committees, including the
Citizenship Committee, Student Services Committee, Hall of Fame Screening
