Congratulations to Grade 8 student Madeline Johnson of Whispering Ridge Community School, winner of the 2020 PWPSD Christmas Card Art Contest. Grades 7-9 students throughout PWPSD were invited to submit artwork under the theme, “The best thing about Christmas is…”
Madeline’s cheerful scene uses chalk pastels, glitter and collage to depict the fun of decorating the family Christmas tree – a reminder of the importance of finding joy in family traditions, which is especially timely during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic when families are being asked to participate in small household celebrations.
The contest cycles through all four Grade Divisions annually, with this year's contest open to Division 3 students, encompassing Grades 7-9 at all PWPSD schools. Madeline’s artwork was selected from among 35 submissions.
Congratulations to Madeline and thanks to all students who participated in the contest.
