Students win poster contest
October was National “Adopt-A-Shelter Pet” month. Felicia Watkins, the art teacher at Putnam County Primary School, had the students draw a picture of their family or themselves playing with a pet. The Oconee Regional Humane Society wanted to award a winner and a runner-up from each grade level. All of the students put in extra effort to make their picture special.
The kindergarten class winner was Dayton Nelson and the runner-up was Tytianna Little. Aniyah Brown was the winner in first grade and KyAshia Youngblood was runner-up. And in the second grade, Waylon Wooten came in first and runner-up was Alexander Durance. Congratulations to all the winners and to all the participants.
The winners received free ice cream and a ribbon. Their artwork will be framed and hung in the new Oconee Regional Humane Society Center.
