Dear Friends of the Hinsdale Central Foundation:

Our mission at the Hinsdale Central Foundation is continued support of our teachers, coaches and administration endeavors so that we can support our students to the best of our ability. We are always on the lookout for new board members, so if you are interested in joining the Hinsdale Central Foundation please contact us.

In February of 2023, the Young Scholars program honored members of the Class of 2026 whom had earned a 5.0 or higher-grade point average in the first semester. Tedi Cote, Class of 2005 and an HC Foundation board member, spoke about her time on the Poms team and how that experience and journey at Hinsdale Central played a pivotal role in shaping who she has become today. We continued to support our teachers through the Jodie Harrison Memorial Teacher’s Grant, Latin Novella Classroom Library, supplies for the Robotics team’s competitions and graphing calculators for the Math Department. We were honored to be part of the Senior Scholarship program to award two highly qualified seniors the Young Scholars senior scholarship, Saanvi Sethi and Luke Chung. We look forward to the continued success of all the recent Hinsdale Central graduates who are onto their next endeavors.

We had outstanding nominations for the Hall of Fame and are pleased to announce our inductees for the Class of 2023: Stanley Walton (posthumous) HC ’58, David Tetenbaum Hope (posthumous) HC ’73, J. Scott Spiker HC ’73, Steve Cashman HC ‘78, Richard Eck HC ’81 and Dan Jones retired HC AD – all were inducted on September 21st, 2023 at Ruth Lake Country Club. It was a lovely celebration filled with lots of nostalgia, laughter and words of wisdom. Congratulations to this year’s class! We always welcome nominations of people you think are worthy of this honor, so please continue to send all the nominations our way by submitting them through our website.
