Junior Student Published in "Sail" Magazine.

Jessica Reid, junior at HC, has recently published an article "Lost in a Daydream" in Sail magazine.  Currently a student in English teacher Michael Palmquist's AP Language and Composition class, Jessica originally wrote the published piece for an assignment for Christine Hicks' English 2 Honors class last year.  Congratulations, Jessica!

Sun-Times article about HC grad and English Teacher

Read a great story about Kevin Mori (HC 2008) and Christine Hicks by Sara Clarkson in The Doings.

Here's the opener:

Just about the last place you may expect to find an English teacher would be a Silicon Valley luncheon with an elite group of engineers whose main study, obsession even, is math and science.
But that is exactly where Hinsdale Central English teacher and drama club coach Christine Hicks found herself on April 14. She was the lunch guest of Kevin Mori, a 2008 Hinsdale Central graduate, former student and former backstage drama club member, who is a senior at Stanford University’s engineering school.
