Students Advance to Next Round in Rome This Weekend

By: Melissa Lowrie

Wildwood Christian Academy students, 6th Grader, Adam Ward and 8th Grader, Hannah Smith, took first place honors last Saturday, March 20th, at the Optimist International Oratorical Contest, held at Jasper Middle School. The topic this year was: "Cyber Communication: Progress or Problem?" Both Ward and Smith will move on to the zone level this Saturday in Rome where they will compete against winners from other Optimist Clubs in the area. The winner of the zone competition will be sent to the district level with the chance to win a scholarship. “Adam and Hannah did a wonderful job presenting their speeches,” Club President Parish Lowrie said. “The members of our Optimist Club have no doubt that these students have a bright future ahead.” The Optimist Oratorical Contest is one of the organization’s most popular programs, with more than 2,000 clubs participating annually.
