STATE ESSAY WINNERS

 
In January, 23 essays were received from students from all over the state. There were 8 councils represented.
 
The theme this year was very timely for the youth to write about: What are the two most important virtues for an elected leader to possess, and why? How can you determine if the leader has these virtues?
 
Essays were well written and contained some creative insight. The winners were Emylia Jacobs (Council 6742), Ava Winters (Council 13983), Adam Hodges (Council 13983), Abigail Glynn (Council 13983) and Mary Griffin (Council 13983).
 
Their essays have been submitted to Supreme for consideration in the International Essay competition. Congratulations to all the winners and thank you to all who participated!
