Columbia, South Carolina – 14th Annual Project Sentry Logo Contest Winners Announced
United States Attorney Beth Drake announced today the winners of the United States Attorney’s Office 14th Annual Project Sentry Logo Contest.
The winners are from the following schools:
K-2nd grade division winner: Ayden Downey, Ocean Drive Elementary, N. Myrtle Beach, SC
3rd-5th grade division winner: Natalie James, Slater Marietta Elementary, Marietta, SC
6th-8th grade division winner: Kyler Fleeman, West Oak Middle School, Westminster, SC
9th-12th grade division: Zandria Smith, Military Magnet Academy, N. Charleston, SC
Overall winner: Kyler Fleeman, West Oak Middle School, Westminster, SC
The winners were chosen from 285 entries from 13 schools across South Carolina. Each division winner will receive a $50.00 award, with the overall winner receiving an additional $50.00 award. All of the students who participated will receive a Certificate of Appreciation for logo submissions.
The statewide contest fosters an opportunity for South Carolina students to tell the entire state how they prevent gun violence in their school and focuses on deterrence of juvenile gun violence and ensuring secure school environments. The contest was open to students in all South Carolina schools.
The winning entries were selected by “The Insiders,” a select group of students from the South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice, who travel throughout the state, encouraging troubled children and promoting community awareness of the prevalence and consequences of juvenile crime. The U.S. Attorney’s Office coordinated with the South Carolina Law Enforcement Officers’ Association Foundation (SCLEOA) to provide the cash awards to the winners.
US Attorney Beth Drake commended the students and their engagement on helping foster this very important dialogue. “Thanks to all of the students who participated and congratulations to our winners! The students demonstrated some real wisdom we can all learn from.”
