Lansing USD 469 is proud to announce that several of our Lansing Middle School students have been recognized for their creative efforts in the International Lions Club's Peace Poster Contest. The winners were Ben Lohman, who earned first place; Ellie Lourentzos, who received second place; and Riley Lewis, who received third.
The awards presentation took place on Wednesday, November 13, in the Lansing Middle School art room. Each of the winners was recognized, with the top three artists winning cash prizes. Lansing Lions Chapter member Chris Southard presented the awards to the winners.
The International Lions Club Peace Poster Contest, hosted annually, encourages young people worldwide to express their visions of peace through art. This year's theme inspired students to reflect on what peace means to them and convey it visually. Winning entries will move forward for consideration at the state level, with a chance to compete internationally.
Congratulations to all participants and art teacher Emily Bucher on the Peace Poster Contest. Their creativity and perspectives offer a beautiful reminder of the importance of peace in today's world.
