Readers, let me welcome you in to one of my favorite issues to put together: Our annual education, homes and arts issue. In these pages, you will meet several community members who are leaving a lasting impression on Maple Grove.
In our Departments section, meet an educator, an artist and a student—all creative in their own unique ways. I talk with Maple Grove Senior High School teacher Ryan Hennessey about his passion for teaching inside and outside of the classroom. Next, Stefan Hall meets with writer Daniel Huss to share insights on how he creates one-of-a-kind knives. Lastly, Daniela Del Mastro serves on the tennis court, and writer Meredith Heneghan gives us insight on Daniela’s training.
Readers, this is our annual Senior Spotlight issue. I had the pleasure of meeting five inspiring students from Heritage Christian Academy, Maple Grove Senior High School, Osseo Senior High School, Parnassus Preparatory Academy and Providence Academy. Hear from each student in their own voice by reading our Senior Spotlight story.
This September, I invite you to vote on our Readers’ Choice photo in the Focus on Maple Grove photo contest. Voting opens on September 15 through September 30, and winners are announced in the beginning of October.
See you soon, Readers!
