Arizona 3rd Grade Postcard Contest Awards and Pizza Parties have begun thanks to all the work done by Dr. Kristen Rex, Arizona Historical Society Chief Education Officer.
Congratulations to Buckeye's WestPark Elementary School winner Dezihray Ciadella. She won the pizza party, swag bag and celebrated with her class, her teacher Ms. Fasnacht, and her family.
To help celebrate Arizona’s 113th birthday a postcard making contest was created for 3rd graders. Lessons and activities were developed to support teachers’ needs to meet 3rd grade state standards on Arizona history. Over 2,000 students participated, 700 postcard art pieces were scored for creativity, accuracy in art and social studies, and 14 postcards were selected as winners. Winning students earned their class a pizza party, swag bag, and their teachers a year’s membership to the Arizona Historical Society. The Historical League is happy to provide financial support for this program.
