Huge congratulations to Hilliard alumni Braden and Keaton Norris, who are both competing in the 2022 March Madness tournament. Father and Hilliard teacher Brett Norris coached his sons at Bradley High School and now gets to watch them play for Wright State and Loyola College as they compete for the title. Best of luck, and we’ll be rooting for you both!
Students at Darby Creek worked with the OSU College of Engineering to take apart old electronics, where they’ll be using those pieces to create robots, rockets, and more when they return back from spring break. We’re excited to see what’s in store!
Hilliard Bradley’s A.P. Literature and Composition students are making sociograms, which are visual representations of their literary analysis, almost like a deconstructed essay. Students must show their understanding of characterization through the choice of symbols they make for each character. They must also show an understanding of character relationships through the choice of quotes and passages that connect the characters on the chart and, illuminate the intricate relationship they share in the book.
Hilliard City Schools is proud to announce 8 students have received recognition from the National Merit Scholarship Program. Each year, more than 1.5 million students across the country enter the National Merit Program by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT). Of these students, approximately 15,000 semifinalists are notified that they have advanced to Finalist standing.
Congratulations to these 8 students who have made it to the Finalist round!

Congratulations to Darby Senior Blake Horvath, who was recently recognized with the Maggied-Romanoff Award as the Most Outstanding Scholar-Athlete from the Columbus Chapter of the National Football Foundation. Blake will continue his academic and athletic career at The United States Naval Academy.
“Football has shown me how to compete, how to go out and give everything you have for one goal and never give up,” said Horvath. “I’ve learned just how important it is to be a leader for others around you. There is no doubt in my mind that the skills and lessons I learned will stay with me for my entire life.”
