Just in time for NHD!

Our button design (above) is by Agnes Mazur of Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire. A young woman of many talents--she'll also present the documentary made by her, Callie McCune, and Mona Ghadri, "Carrying the Burden: The Story of Clyde Kennard." Thanks Agnes!

Heads-up Illinois NHD delegation:

We encourage students to introduce themselves to each other via "Comments." Consider telling us about your project and something that excited you or that you found really interesting along the course of your work. What are you most excited about doing at NHD? Do you have special plans about what you want to see & do?

Here's a reminder about our activities:
