CHANDLER, Ariz., June 27,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The winners of this year's
Arizona PBS Writing Contest, sponsored by Primavera Online School, a tuition-free, public
charter school for grades K-12, have been announced. The children's
writing contest, which was open to all K - 5 elementary school
students across Arizona, asked
students to imagine what the ultimate field trip with their
favorite teacher would look like and then write and/or illustrate a
fiction or nonfiction story about it. The prizes, supplied by
StrongMind, included an Amazon Fire Tablet, VR headset and 3D
drawing pen.
"We are excited to partner with Arizona PBS and sponsor this
year's writing contest that encourages students to express their
creativity," said Jessica
Pagoulatos, Executive Director at Primavera Online. "It's
inspiring to see the imagination and talent of young writers, and
we're thrilled to be a part of their journey as they explore the
limitless possibilities."
An award ceremony honoring the winners was held on Saturday, June 15, 2024, at The Walter Cronkite
School of Journalism and Mass Communication. The ceremony included
