Abby Heavrin, Opinions Editor
Senior Abby Heavrin is an Opinions Editor in her second year on the Blueprint staff. Heavrin is currently the President of the DGS choirs and a co-social events chair of the Masque & Gavel program. She is also a member of the International Thespians Society and the National Honor Society.
In her past three years at DGS, Heavrin has participated at the state and national levels in speech, earning Superior Distinction with the National Speech and Debate Association. As well, she performed at the all-state level for the Illinois Music Education Association. 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.
Outside of school, you can always find Heavrin curled up with a good romance book or working at Dazzling Divas, where she runs 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 hanging out with friends.
She has always enjoyed writing and sharing her perspectives with others; she looks forward to sharing her stories with the school. Next year, Heavrin hopes to attend a four-year university to major in business and marketing.
