To recognize teachers and staff who go above and beyond, the Hinsdale Central PTO proudly sponsors the Make a Difference Awards. We invite students, parents, and colleagues to nominate a teacher or staff member whose dedication, kindness, and commitment have made a positive impact at Hinsdale Central.
Show your appreciation by submitting a nomination for a Make a Difference Award.
