DARLINGTON, S.C. – Emily Storm, an eleventh-grade student at Mayo High School for Math, Science and Technology, is the winner of the Darlington County School District’s (DCSD) 2021 Holiday Card Art Contest. Storm’s drawing, which features the mascots of all four district high schools building a snowman, will be printed on the front cover of the district’s official holiday card.
This year, the Holiday Card Art Contest included DCSD students in grades 9-12. All four high schools and the Darlington County Institute of Technology each selected a school winner from artwork submitted by their students. Employees in DCSD’s Administrative Offices then voted on an overall winner from among the five finalists.
Storm will receive a certificate, $50, and a packet of holiday cards featuring her drawing. Her art teacher, Lyn O’Donnell, will receive $100 for art supplies for Mayo High School for Math, Science and Technology.
The four other finalists for this year’s competition were:
• Peyton Miller, 9th grade, Lamar High School
• Lakayla Peoples, 11th grade, Darlington County Institute of Technology
• Jude Williams, 10th grade, Hartsville High School
• Mariah Royster, 9th grade, Darlington High School.
