Louisville High School Student Named Fulbright Grant Recipient

5/22/15 — Louisville High School senior Hilary Skov was recently named a Fulbright U.S. Student Grant recipient. Hilary will work as an English Teaching Assistant (ETA) in Indonesia. After traveling abroad to Indonesia her junior year, Skov fell in love with the country’s people, culture, food and environment, which is why she chose to go back to teach English. During her travels, she noticed the mental and physical barriers people with disabilities face in the country on daily basis. “I hope to work to de-stigmatize disability and increase individual levels of self-efficacy. Of course, this is not a quick-fix, but I look forward to doing the best that I can and helping in any way possible,” Skov said.
