The Scholastic Awards in Virginia is the nation’s longest-running and most prestigious recognition program for creative students in grades 7–12. 

Middle School/Upper School Visual Arts Teacher Sejal Vaywala said that she is proud of all of the award winners for their achievements. “The arts are vital to students' growth and learning,” she noted. “The arts help people express their own ideas, thoughts, and feelings, and they keep everyone's imagination alive!”
