Paris High Seniors recognized in Air Force essay contest

Paris High School seniors Cate Biard, Olivia Fitzgerald, Amy Rodriguez, and Jaelee Johnson received $500 scholarships after being selected among 11 finalists in the Northeast Texas Air & Space Forces Association essay contest.

At a dinner and recognition ceremony held at The Oaks Country Club in Greenville, all four students were honored for their achievements. Each student received a $500 scholarship. It is worth noting that all four students are enrolled in Brent Wilburn's AP English IV class, showcasing the academic excellence and achievements within that particular group of students. The event not only celebrated their accomplishments but also highlighted the dedication and hard work they have put into their studies. 

The essay program is a statewide contest sponsored by the Air Force Association of Texas. The essay topic for 2024-2025 was: "Filling Our Military Forces: Volunteer? Compulsory? Or Other?"

Quick Tip Information

Quick Tip is a support system that allows students to communicate with school administrators. While the district already has many programs to help students deal with challenges such as bullying behaviors, stress, peer pressure, and family problems, Quick Tip helps break the code of silence often experienced by students because it allows them to report concerns to administrators anonymously.
