On January 22, 2011, the Special Administrative Board presented the Spirit of Excellence Certificate to fifth grader Pearl Dailey, from Froebel Literacy Academy, and Lucy Myerscough, a second grader at Stix ECC School.

Pearl is the grand prize winner in Mayor Slay's 2010 annual Holiday Design Card Contest! Pearl's art teacher, Amanda Coleman, cultivated Pearl's talent and inspired her to create a great work of art.

Lucy was the 2nd runner up in the contest. Her art teacher, Shari Gourde, provided excellent leadership for Lucy.

This year's contest attracted a heavy amount of entries from talented students representing districts from all of the metropolitan area.

These young ladies are destined for future success!
