Tucker County schools held a Young Writers Contest with the students of grades three through eight. The contest is a collaborative effort with the Central West Virginia Writing Project (CWVWP). The winners were announced during the Board of Education meeting and the awards were presented by Tucker County School Superintendent Alicia Lambert. Awards for Math Field Day and Golden Horseshoe winners were also presented.

According to the Young Writers website: Young Writers was established in 1991 in a small warehouse in Eastern England and has grown into a worldwide brand. Today, Young Writers is still a modest family-run business, but on a much bigger scale than its humble beginnings. Young Writers is also a part of the award winning Bonacia family.

“We pride ourselves on encouraging young writers to read, write, and enjoy poetry as well as creative writing. Having work published boosts confidence, nurtures creative talent and showcases creativity.”, according to Young Writers web page.

County winners for the Third and Fourth grade students were: First place – Greyson Brown of DTEMS. Second place – Hunter “Jack” Rawlings of DTEMS, and Third place – Gio Maniscarco of DTEMS. 

County Winners for the Fifth and Sixth grade students were: First place – Owen Helmick of DTEMS and Third place – Adelaide Gregory of DTEMS.

Golden Horseshoe awards were given to Xander Lamber from TVEMS and Grayson Sypolt from DTEMS. According to the Golden Horseshoe web page: “The Golden Horseshoe Test has been administered in West Virginia each year since 1931 and is the longest-running program of its kind in any state. The top-scoring students in each county receive the prestigious award and are inducted as “knights” and “ladies” of the Golden Horseshoe Society.”
