Abby Heavrin, Opinions Editor

Junior Abby Heavrin is an Opinions Editor in her first year on the Blueprint staff. Heavrin is heavily involved in the Masque & Gavel program as a social events chair for the club. Music and theater have always been a huge part of her life, but she looks forward to exploring journalism more.

Outside of school, you can always find Heavrin curled up with a good romance book or working at Dazzling Divas running children's parties and spa days. While her cramped school schedule doesn’t leave much time for herself, the little time she does have is almost always spent with her friends which never fails to boost her mood.

In her past two years at DGS Heavrin has participated at the State and National level for speech and looks forward to competing at those tournaments in the future. Heavrin has previously won the American Legion Award in her eighth-grade year at Lakeview Jr. High and was selected as the 2023 recipient of the IAGC Distinguished Student Scholarship.

She has always enjoyed writing and sharing her perspectives with others; she looks forward to sharing her stories with the school.
