Congratulations, Cortney!

Cortney was honored and chosen out of 80 submissions across the state of Nebraska as one of four top writers of poetry in the grade 6-8 division of the Nebraska Writing Project's "Poetry of Place" competition.  Cortney celebrated her accomplishment by reading her poem, "Silence in My Apartment" in the Warner Chamber at the State Capitol in Lincoln today with other accomplished student and adult poets from all over the state.  Great job, Cortney!
