Lee Haney, Mr. Olympia for eight consecutive years (1984-1991), addressed the student body as part of the Multicultural Week celebration. Humanitarian Awards were presented to student Phillip Shell and faculty member Barbara Phillips.

Shell is described as a leader at Starr's Mill but is best known for his involvement in serving others. He has gone on several outreach trips for the purpose of building houses for those in need and volunteers at area homeless shelters in his spare time.

Phillips developed the Health Occupations Program at the school and has been influential in creating Fayette's first Health Occupations Job Shadowing Program. She sponsored fundraisers that bought the first defibrillator for the school. She also coordinates the school's blood drives and the Pennies for Patients campaign, which raises funds to help children with leukemia.
