In the fall, MMS 7th-8th grade English students entered the VFW Patriot's Pen Essay Contest. Students were asked to write a 300-400 word essay about "How Are You Inspired by America?" Entries were sent to the local VFW Post 4067 to be judged at the local level. Students who placed at the local level were then submitted to the regional level to be judged. Presenting awards were Derek Oshio, VFW Post Commander, Donald Klinko, VFW Trustee, and committee head for the Patriot's Pen, Sharon Kindle, Patriotic Instructor/Coordinator for the VFW Auxillary, and Kari Hould, Conductress and Chairwomen for Children and Youth. Placing at the local level were Jace Tollefson, 3rd place, and Ellis Carnahan, 1st place.
