Nadia President, a second grade student at Cross Elementary School, won first place in the Primary Division of the 2015 National Career Development Association’s Poetry and Poster Contest.
Thirty-five South Carolina public school students and seven adult educators were chosen as state winners in the National Career Development Association’s 49th annual poetry and poster contest.
The competition is conducted annually by the National Career Development Association in conjunction with the South Carolina Department of Education, Office of Career and Technology Education to promote career awareness at all grade levels in schools.
This year’s statewide competition attracted more than 5,000 entries.
For the competition, South Carolina students and educators created poems and posters based on the national theme “Celebrating First Jobs through Encore Careers”.
The poems and posters were first judged at the school level then regional level. All first, second and third place regional winners were then submitted to the State for state-level to be judged.
All state-level winning entries were submitted to the National Career Development Association for judging at the national level.
The National Career Development Association will release the names of the national winners for this year in April.
The contest was judged on grade-level divisions in three categories: poetry, traditional poster (Category 1) and posters using multi-media applications (Category 2).
