It’s almost high school graduation time! Our May issue’s cover story gives big recognition to six seniors who are making it across the stage despite experiencing war, culture shock, a language barrier, Hurricane Katrina, poverty and physical abuse during their young lives.
This issue also features former students who’ve returned to their neighborhood schools as faculty and staff, the new-yet-on-fire Lake Highlands High debate team, filmmaker and wife of a late UTA baseball coach Julie Gould, the guys behind neighborhood nonprofit Computers for the Blind, four fresh-faced little girls who sing with the Dallas Opera, brunch at Crossroads diner and other neighborhood eateries, a great Mother’s Day wine and recipe for roast chicken thighs … and more stories, lists, columns, pictures and events, straight out of our Lake Highlands.
