Meet the judges
We recruited judges from
each of our four main coverage areas — Northwest
suburban Cook County, Lake
County, DuPage County and
the Fox Valley — to analyze the
nominations and pick the
winners.
The process is blind, so
judges did not know the
names of the schools, or the
students, they were judging.
Additionally, the judges were
asked to assess students from
a coverage area different from
their home coverage area.
The judges evaluated each
application in various areas,
such as test scores, class rank,
extracurriculars, course work,
essay, honors and awards, and
sponsor recommendation.
The judges were:
• Dan Detzner, Conant High
School teacher
• Jeff Doles, Barrington High
School teacher
• Paul Drennan, Willowbrook High School, director of
guidance
• Stacia Hill, Lisle, sales and
account management and volunteer
• Bill Leensvaart, retired
Glenbard South High School
principal
• Janice Matthews, superintendent, Oak Grove District 68
• Joanna Medwick, principal
at Franzen Intermediate
School in Itasca
• Kent Mutchler, superintendent, Geneva Unit District 304
• Jeff Nehila, director, Round
Lake Area Park District
• Ray Rogina, retired high
school teacher and part-time
college instructor
• Tony Sanders, director of
communications, Elgin U-46
School District
• Dottie Sievert, retired principal, Wheeling High School
• Joanne Weick, Hawthorn
Woods trustee
• John Whitehurst, assistant
principal, Antioch High School
• Gary Wright, former principal, Hampshire Elementary
School
