Carlinville Middle and High School students had the pleasure of meeting and hearing Noelle Malkamaki. Noelle is a Paralympic athlete from Decatur, Illinois. She attended DePaul University, and is a 2-Time World Champion in Track and Field. In the 2024 Paralympics, she brought home the gold medal in shot put. Though Noelle was a visitor today in Carlinville, she has family ties as the Granddaughter of CHS graduates Mary and Jim Hammann and the Great Niece of CMS social studies teacher Melanie Rosentreter.
