Caroline Hinton is a senior at Western Alamance High School and was hospitalized at UNC from July through October due to injuries sustained in a car accident.  The UNC Hospital School and Western Alamance High School worked together to provide Caroline’s educational services, teaching her Latin, Chemistry and English IV.  Her goal is to study Chemical Engineering and she hopes to do so at NC State starting in the Fall of 2014. 

Caroline’s independence and optimistic attitude have been an inspiration to the people who work with her.  The hospital staff, including the dedicated Rehab staff, worked hard to accommodate her school services.  Caroline’s only complaint about the Hospital School was that we couldn’t fit more schoolwork into her busy rehab schedule. . . What a student!
