Calhoun High School students Erick Jaramillo and Kenya Perez were recently honored in the Congressional Art Contest. Erick won third place for his piece "A Lost Memory," and Kenya received an Honorable Mention for "A Bright Future." Both artworks are on display at the CHS front office. Congratulations to both students on their outstanding achievements!
The Congressional Institute annually sponsors a nationwide art competition for high school students to recognize and encourage artistic talent across the country. Students submit their artworks to their representative’s office, and district artists select the winners. The winning pieces are displayed at the U.S. Capitol for one year and the artists are celebrated in their districts and at a ceremony in Washington, DC.
