The contest is a VFW sponsored essay contest open to all 6 th , 7 th , and 8 th grade students across the U.S. More than 138,000 students entered this contest last year. First prize is $5000. The theme for this year is “How Can I Be a Good American.” During the discussion of the essay, it was talked about supporting our military especially if stationed overseas. A student in the class, Morgan Davis, mentioned her cousin, Seth Foreman, was stationed overseas. The class decided to do more than write an essay, they would send Seth a care package. The class has learned that it takes Seth 21 days to receive his mail. Mrs. Ward was very proud of the initiative of her students. Pictured are Jocelynne Lambert, Taci Lee, Raelyn Loudermilk, Morgan Davis, Destiny Grant, Carter Wilson, and Jett Burris.
