Standout Spartans: Anza Fierro '23 and Callan Hartman '23

Spartans place first and second in statewide essay contest
The Esther J. Windmueller "Never Again" essay contest, sponsored by Emek Sholom Holocaust Memorial Cemetery, has asked Virginia high schoolers to consider genocide-related issues every year since 2005. This year's topic focused on how to stop the growing tide of anti-Semitism in America and worldwide. We were blown away to find out both the first- and second-place winners came from The Steward School!
 
Congratulations to first-place winner Anza Fierro '23, who won a $500 scholarship for her essay, which she presented at Emek Sholom Holocaust Memorial Cemetery during its annual commemoration of Kristallnacht, the Night of Pogroms. Congratulations are also in order for Callan Hartman '23 for taking second place in the contest, an honor that came with a $300 prize. Both sophomores wrote their essays in Mrs. Arnold's Honors World Literature class after studying Elie Wiesel's "Night." Way to go, Anza and Callan!
