The Martin Luther King, Jr. Commemoration Society recently announced a student at Eugene Field Elementary won second place in an MLK Day creativity contest which was open to all Tulsa-area students. The contest happened in conjunction with the Tulsa MLK Parade which took place Jan. 17 with the theme “Hope and Action: The Fierce Urgency of Now.”
Eugene Field 5th grade student Moriah McMahan won second place ($125) for her entry into the Youth Art Contest. Students in grades K-6 were asked to create an illustration based on one of three themes that characterizes Dr. King’s life and work – Love, Peace or Unity – and what the theme means to them. All three winning drawings are showcased in the 2022 MLK Souvenir Book.
Students within the district also won in other contest categories including art, dance, essay and oratory. Click here to see the complete list of contest winners from Tulsa Public Schools.
