Scholastic Art and Design Awards

Many of our talented student artists have received recognition and awards at the Regional Scholastic Art and Design Contest. This contest saw over 5,400 entries from 13 counties. All student work underwent two full days of judging and were put up against art from schools as far away as  Marathon and Massena!  It is a highly competitive contest where only the top students from each school are entered and from there, only the a select few receive an award. The awards listed below are recognition of the hard work, talent, problem solving, innovation, craftsmanship and creative thinking theses students have displayed. And even with our small population, MPH was the 9th overall most winning school, scoring above many of our neighboring large school competitors.  The students’ work will be on display at the Whitney Applied Technology building at OCC from January 13 – March 3 and the gold key winners will continue to compete at the national level.
