Approximately 60 seventh grade students participated in the Lions Club annual peace poster contest. The high school art teachers helped to narrow down the entries to seven total finalists, which then were further narrowed down to three overall submissions by members of the local Lions Club branch!

Finalists: Maya Bushay Schwartz, Eda Buyuk, Henry Flynn, Sophia Hull, Isabel Reis, Maddie Rubenstein, and Solene Thinat.

EDA BUYUK was the winner of the contest and represented Rye Neck Middle School as the Lions Club continued the judging process at the next level.

Isabel Reis and Solene Thinat were chosen by the Lions Club, both as a runner-up in the contest!

Students attended a virtual ceremony to recognize their work and accomplishments in November 2021!
