The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards is the longest-running, most prestigious recognition program for creative teens in the U.S. Since 1923, the Awards have recognized the exceptional vision of our nation’s youth. This year, Park students were honored in both the Art and Writing categories:

Senior Olivia Chalkley received multiple (6) honors for writing, including a Gold Key in the Personal Essay/Memoir category for her work, “Age-old Traditions.”

Junior Lorenza Ramirez received two awards for writing.

In the Art category, Senior Maddy Riorda earned the top honor, the Gold Key, for her art portfolio.

Congratulations to Olivia, Lorenza, and Maddy — and to all of the participants in the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. For details about the program, and for complete lists of those recognized by region, go to http://www.artandwriting.org/alliance/partners-regionalprogram/
