I wanted to take this time to share an accomplishment from one of our 4th grade Eastin students, Sylvia Mai. She entered a drawing contest for https://aaci.org/guaa/ titled, ''Growing Up Asian American''. She was one of the 6 students to receive an Honorable Mention Award. The caption with her work is:

 

 

“I am drawing a portrait of my family. My dad represents infrastructure and emergency response (Thank you, first responders for keeping us safe!). My mom represents nature, recreation and housing. I represent education and technology development. My little sister represents culture and food. These are the resources that census will help to allocate. Census counts the people, so that we have the right amount of resources. I choose to put We the People in my drawing because this means that the country is governed for the People and by the People, not by a king or a queen. “

 

We are so proud of Sylvie!
