Congratulations to 11th grader Katherine Kong for winning the first place ribbon for her Christmas card art design, which will be featured on the cover of our school’s annual Christmas card being sent to several thousand families and friends this week.
Thirty-eight students in Ms. Mirakian’s after-school program, Art Studio, and high school students in Art Appreciation and Art Workshop submitted cover art designs. Katherine’s card design, done in water color on card stock, has the message “Celebrate the Birth of the King” and the word “Emmanuel” which means “God is with us.”
In addition to Katherine, four other students were recognized for their outstanding designs. A second place red ribbon was awarded to 12th grader Lin Xiao; 9th grader Sophia Lee received the 3rd place white ribbon; and 9th grader Paige Noble and 11th grader Jia Peng received green Honorable Mention ribbons.
“This is the third year we have held this Christmas card art contest and we were very impressed with the outstanding designs created by our students,” said Chief School Administrator Karen Oblen. “We see this contest as a way to encourage our students to discover and develop their God-given artistic abilities.”
