District 99 Names Communications Director

Jill S. Browning  has assumed the newly created post of communications director for Community High School District 99.

A nine-year resident of Downers Grove, Browning has three children in District 58. "I am thrilled to have the opportunity to not only do the kind of work that I'm passionate about, but also to serve the communities that I'm passionate about," Browning said in a press release.

The district decided in September to end its contact with communications consultant Faith Behr and hire a full-time communications director.

"Jill offers over 20 years of experience, which includes managing large corporate communications programs and websites as well as writing for regional and national publications," Supt. Mark McDonald said. "We are particularly excited to tap into Jill's website experiences and to integrate those into our overall communications strategy.
