Hollywood Screenwriter and Mattoon Native, Craig Titley visited a couple of our schools on September 21st. Titley spoke about his time in the district and how that helped prepare him for his career. He also took questions from students about some of his film projects, including "Cheaper By the Dozen", "Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief", and the 2002 live action "Scooby Doo" film. We are thankful for Titley's time and how he left everyone feeling inspired.
