Magnet Sophomore Places in VFW Essay Contest

Magnet sophomore Nathan Chillian debated the effort to reward ratio when he considered the extra credit writing assignment Mr. Greene offered in early November via the annual Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) essay contest.  In the end, Chillian decided it was worth it. Little did he know when he submitted his essay that (besides getting the opportunity to reflect deeply on the role of our veterans past and future) his efforts would also earn him a $200 dollar honorarium for his 3rd place essay based on the following prompt: “Why Veterans are Important to our Nation’s History and Future”.  A special thanks to all of the VFW members at post 4278 for this opportunity. And thank you for your service.
