Mollie Bishop, Hixson High School

Today’s #HCSco2020 Senior Spotlight is Mollie Bishop, a senior at Hixson High School. Mollie is a talented writer and communicator who invests her skills in causes she cares about. Most recently, she spent some of her virtual learning time researching the role of Tennessee in the women's suffrage movement and prepared a speech for the Tennessee State Library and Archives and the Tennessee State Museum's "Battle for the Ballot" speech competition.


“I admire Mollie's willingness to engage in academic challenges above and beyond her full class load and the demands of multiple extra-curricular activities,” said Stephanie Brewer, Mollie’s former teacher.  “As a history teacher, I applaud Mollie's focus on civics-related activities, and I look forward to following how she takes her passion for equity into the next stages of her life.”


After graduation, Mollie plans to pursue a degree in elementary education at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
