Sophomore Grace Roberson beat out 50,000 students to win the gold medal for poetry in the prestigious Scholastic Art and Writing Awards competition
How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Just ask Lakewood High School sophomore Grace Roberson. The underclasswoman will head to the prestigious concert hall later this spring to accept a gold medal for poetry that she won in the national Scholastic Art and Writing Awards competition, according to LHS Communications Specialist Christine Gordillo. Roberson won the top honor after judges chose her poetic works over the 185,000-plus poems submitted by 7-12 grade students from across the nation. Entries were judged on originality, technical skill and emergence of personal vision or voice. The national winners were selected from the 1,500 students who advanced from their regional competitions in January, said Gordillo. “I was very surprised. I …

Beginning in the 2015-16 school year, the Rangers will join Midview High School as the newest members of the conference, bringing the total to 10. “For scheduling purposes, it’s easier for us — particularly in football,” said Kevin Bright, the assistant superintendent at the Lakewood City Schools. Another plus, he said, is that all of the teams are Division 1 or Division 2. In the West Shore, there are a couple Division 3 teams, making state rankings more difficult for the Division 1 squads. “This equalizes the competition for us,” Bright said…

Things sometimes get morphed in translation. The title of the program was actually a "Celebration of History"--celebrating the efforts of the students to understand the pivotal event in US history. The study of the Civil War is a powerful mechanism for inspiring students to be lifetime learners and to develop an analytical disposition. As always, our students work was first-rate, more ›
