Flagler Schools announced the district winners of the Crime Stoppers Student Poster Contest, sponsored by the 7th Judicial Circuit.
Elementary, middle school and high school students from the four school districts in the circuit — Flagler Voluisa, St. Johns and Putnam — participate in the annual contest, which is an effort to get “See it, Say it, Stop it” posters in schools to let students know that if they witness violence, bullying or negative attitudes toward others, they can report it anonymously with a call or text.
The Flagler elementary school winners were: Ekaterina Shabalina, Wadsworth (first place); Madeline Barnes, Wadsworth (second place); and Mya Bowyer, Old Kings (third place).
Indian Trails swept the middle school level in the district competition with Mekila McDonald winning first place, Arthur Lima second place and Declan Athearn third place.
On the high school level, David Ours of Flagler Palm Coast placed first, Marium Sabuk of FPC placed second and Aaron Perry of Matanzas placed third.
