• 2015 TOP TOPPERS AT HHS

    The Top Topper is awarded monthly to an HHS student showing exemplified characteristics in leadership, attitude, and direction.  Teachers of HHS nominate students with administration making the final decision.

     
    Hillsboro High School Top Topper Program strives to improve school climate through recognizing students for their acts of kindness and other good deeds that are performed on campus.  Established last year this program is supported by local businesses.  The Orpheum Theatre, Westside Cinema, Gianni's Pizza, Hardee's, McDonald's, Subway, Pizza Man, Pizza Hut, and Little Italy's have all provided Top Toppers with a night out on the town with dinner and a movie.  To be eligible, students are nominated by a high school staff member each month.  The idea behind the Top Topper Program was to reward behavior that is often over-looked.  There is hope that the program will grow to the point that it creates a positive school climate of connected individuals.  Gandhi suggested that one should, “Be the change that you wish to see in the world.”  The Top Topper Program recognizes those who exhibit a willingness to contribute their efforts in making Hillsboro High School a better place.

    Keagan Williamson is the sophomore Top Topper at HHS.  Keagan's mom is Janet Viernum.  His favorite class is Western Civilization because it involves his favorite topics such as resolving conflict.  In his spare time he listens to music, writes poetry and is teaching himself Japanese and coding.  He likes books with major themes such as:  Mice and Men along with The Last Lecture.  He does not like competition but he does like music with any type of meaning. He is motivated by his two grandmas, his sisters and friends.  His advice to other students is to care about everyone even the ones who may not know you or the people who do not like you because in the end it does not matter.  His favorite thought is:  "The loneliest people are the kindest. The saddest people smile the brightest. The most damaged people are the wisest. All because they don't wish to see anyone else suffer the way they did." Keagan would like to give a shout out to Mrs. Trader because she is always there for him when he needs her to be and she has done so much to show that she cares, not just as a teacher but as a friend to him.  Keagan is undecided on his plans after graduation.
