Jessica Ingram's Hilltop High featured in OjodePez

Ingram_Hilltop.jpgJessica Ingram's thought-provoking series, Hilltop High, is featured in the current issue of the Spanish photography magazine OjodePez.

Photographed in San Francisco at the public high school of the same name, Hilltop High, is a story about young women in high school during and after their pregnancy. The students come from all over the city in an effort to graduate, often taking several buses with their baby carriages and backpacks before arriving at Hilltop.

Inside the school, strollers line up in front of lockers and pregnant teenagers discussing mothering and boyfriends pass in the halls like a natural occurrence, while outside the young women are raising children, often in the midst of gang culture, immigration and housing problems, foster care, poverty, and violence.
