🎤✨ Talk about a homecoming! Today, BHS students had the privilege of hosting a truly inspiring guest speaker, Dorothy Stewart, a BHS alum and Hall of Famer! Graduating from BHS in 1951, Dorothy went on to make significant strides in the housing sector. As the first Black woman Executive Director for multiple housing authorities, Dorothy shared her inspiring journey—from growing up in Bloomington to her impactful career and even skydiving at age 91!
Thank you, Dorothy, for motivating the Raiders with your incredible story! 💼✈️
