High Schools That Work Educational Achievement Awards

Six North Chicago Community High School seniors earned the 2008 High Schools That Work (HSTW) Award of Educational Achievement based on their scores on the 2008 HSTW Assessment and the completion of the HSTW-Recommended Curriculum. This is truly an accomplishment. The 2008 HSTW Assessment subject tests contain higher level content than in past years. Additionally, the standards have been raised to align to college-and career-readiness standards. The students from North Chicago Community High School include:
Alonda K. Cambray, Semeka D. Cunningham, Ashlee M. Ford, Stephanie R. Fortson, Dora L. Lopez, and Vance D. Wyatt.

Congratulations to all of these outstanding students and their families.

High Schools That Work (HSTW) is NCCHS's school reform model created by the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB).
