Kristen Hess was recently highlighted in the national newsletter for the Quaglia Institute for Student Aspirations. Hess, a senior at KHS, was selected by members of the Teacher Aspirations team to write an essay last spring for the Student Voice section of the Aspirations newsletter. With the help of Keidi Boatfield and Dan Freeman, both of whom provided editing suggestions and content ideas for Kristen, her essay accurately reflected the impact Aspirations is making at Kenmore High School. On September 11, 2012, Kristen was surprised with a framed copy of the essay during a staff meeting at KHS. She was told her article was published and would be seen nationwide. Kristen is a great example of why we are all APS Proud!
