In 1974, the Ex-Student Association created the Outstanding Ex-Student Award. Each year the Outstanding Ex-Student Award is presented during the Homecoming assembly and business meeting held during the Saturday morning activities. The award is presented to someone who has demonstrated a strong sense of pride and dedication to the Ex-Student Association, Spur ISD, the community and county.
