Three 8th grade students were named local winners in the 54th annual America & Me Essay Contest sponsored by Farm Bureau Insurance. Haydn Naylor (center) won first place, Danica Sabat (left), second, and Imani Davis (right), third. All three received an award certificate for their achievement. As the school’s first place winner, Haydn’s name will also be engraved on a plaque for permanent display. In addition, Haydn’s essay will advance to the state level of competition. Those winners will be announced later in the spring.
Several thousand eighth grade students from over 200 Michigan schools participated in the 2022-2023 America & Me Essay Contest. The topic of the contest was “My Personal Michigan Hero.”
