Four students from Lynbrook South Middle School were recognized in a districtwide middle school T-shirt design contest which bloomed from Career Day. During Career Day, a senior executive from the Children’s Place encouraged the students to enter a contest and design a shirt that they think should be sold at the Children’s Place. The students had about two weeks to complete the design project and 22 entries from students at both North Middle School and South Middle School were submitted. 

Seventy-five people across the design, merchandising, sourcing and production teams at the Children’s Place voted for their favorite designs. They based their votes on three categories: Best Original Design, Best Artwork/Color, Favorite Overall. Winners received certificates and a prize. 

Congratulations to the following winners! 

First Place: Emma Casey

Runner Up: Mia Ciociano

Third Place: Lauren Berkowitz

Honorable Mention: Mimi Berkowitz
