Chloe Kilkelly
Chloe Kilkelly was awarded the Joe Baltake Scholarship for the Written Arts. Her HMHS English teacher cited her writing skills as “insightful, skillfully written, and engaging.” As a sophomore she began to explore different writing genres and by summer 2022 enrolled in “Introduction to Journalism” at The School of the New York Times. The following winter she took a class called “Writing a TV Pilot” through the University of the Arts, learning about the many possibilities of writing and ways to connect herself and her work with the world. In addition to her academic strengths, Chloe has “impeccable integrity, a strong work ethic, a sly sense of humor and extraordinary kindness for her peers,” according to her English teacher, and “has wonderful potential as a thinker, a writer, and a human being.” She will be attending the University of Vermont in the fall to study English and Environmental Science.
