Published by Kathy Wynn at 10:41 am under South, Achievements, Association News

The HHSTA at Hinsdale South was pleased to award a record-setting number of scholarships to graduating seniors of the Class of 2008.  Five $1000 awards were given, as well as six $500 awards.  Recipients of these scholarships, based on applications submitted in the spring of 2008 were:

  • Anjylla Foster
  • Regina Gallian
  • Katie Kaczmarski
  • Elif Karatas
  • Jenna Kirwan
  • Joseph McGuire
  • Daniel Miller
  • Amanda Peterson
  • Afia Shareef
  • David Walker
  • Reed Wilson

Scholarship funds are derived from the HHSTA Spaghetti Dinner, held the Friday evening of Homecoming Week.  Also, for the last three years, a Faculty Variety Show has been held during Homecoming Week.  Proceeds from the first V-Show benefited victims of Hurricane Katrina.  Proceeds from the shows in 2006 and 2007 went directly to the Scholarship Fund.

We urge community support of these efforts, in order to continue to offer these funds to deserving Hinsdale South graduates.  The date for the Faculty Variety Show is Wednesday, October 15, curtain rises at 7:30 pm.  The Spaghetti Dinner will be held on Friday, October 17 from 4 to 8 pm.  Please join us!!!
