Students from first to sixth grade “took the stage with confidence” and performed poems, stories, essays or spoken word pieces in front of their families, friends and teachers, a district release said.
Some of the compositions were focused on Black History Month, some were written about topics the students have a passion for such as dance, church or football, and others were centered around lighthearted messages such as the annoyances of homework.
Perrin Woods students in a first-grade class won first place with their presentation of ‘I Am Somebody’ by Andreal Davis.
Perrin Woods fourth grade student, Ryan Demint, won second place for his performance of the ‘Wellerman Song.’
Perrin Woods first graders Gilberto Gomez-Gramajo and Victory Westbrook, and Perrin Woods sixth grader, Cameron Clark, all tied for third place.
