The three winners are: Ashley Hall, a student at Cornerstone Schools; Quinn Johnson, a student at Midway Elementary School; and Tanner Keylon, a student at Kelly Mill Elementary School. All three winners will be treated to a pizza party with their class and local firefighters.

The three runners up are: Samantha Arana Brambilla, a student at Midway Elementary School; Eric Kidd, a student at Cornerstone Schools; and Valeria Mejia, a student at Midway Elementary School.

The three winners and three runners up will have the honor of having their artwork displayed in county buildings. The students were also recognized for their poster designs by the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners at their May 7, 2015 meeting.

“We hope that the positive fire safety messages these young artists conveyed through their posters will be impactful to all who see them,” Fire Chief Danny Bowman said. “We are certainly proud of these students and of every student who submitted a poster.”

All third grade students in Forsyth County public and private schools, as well as home-schooled students, were encouraged to submit their own original designs and artwork for the poster contest. This was the fifth year the contest was held.
