2022 Read-a-Thon T-Shirt Design Contest: and the Winners Are...

The 2022 Read-a-Thon T-shirt design contest was a huge success. 89 cheetahs, in kindergarten through fifth grade, participated. We are so proud of all students who used their creativity and persistence to create fun and inspiring designs.

With so many fabulous designs, it was a challenge to pick a winner. But we did. 

Congratulations to Bonita Valdez, third grade, for creating the winning design. Bonita’s artwork will be featured on the 2022 Read-a-Thon T-shirt. Bonita has won a $15 gift certificate to spend at the in-person book fair on Tuesday, April 5th. 

Congratulations to Kai Kindred, fourth grader, for creating the runner up design. Kai’s art work will be featured on the 2022 Read-a-Thon bookmark. Kai has won a $10 gift certificate to spend at the in-person book fair on Tuesday, April 5th.
