Three MS Students Place 2nd in State Book Trailer Competition

Kim Gendron, Social Media Coordinator

Several CCES students willingly and voluntarily took on the challenge of creating a book trailer and competed against their peers in the Middle School.  The book trailer had to represent a Book Award Nominee for the current year and had to be an original work created by just the students.
 
Videos were judged on the authenticity of the art as it relates to the book as well as on the artistic quality of the book trailer.  
 
In the 7th and 8th Grade Category:
 
1st place: Rivals
Hayes Bowers ’29, Bennett Clarke ’29, and Whitt Goldsmith ‘29
