Winners have been selected for the 10th Annual Brownwood ISD (BISD) Holiday Card Design Contest. One drawing from elementary and one from secondary were voted the top designs of the contest. Coggin Elementary second-grade student Abram Delgado and Brownwood High School (BHS) freshman Dayana Cruz Sanchez submitted the winning entries that have been used for the official printed BISD cards. Digital media compositions from BHS students Ilena Fulton, Macallister Long, and Kiara Godino will also be utilized by the district on social media.

BISD Superintendent Dr. Joe Young instituted the contest during the 2015-16 school year to highlight the talent of BISD students, while creatively sending out holiday wishes from BISD personnel.

Each year, BISD students are encouraged to enter the contest by producing an original piece of art. Each campus then has the opportunity to submit a selection of designs as finalists to be considered in the voting process carried out at BISD Central Support Center. The final entries are viewed and voted on by BISD Board members and staff with the top entry from each category selected as the winners. This year’s winners were recognized at the December BISD Board of Trustees meeting and their designs are also featured on billboard in town.

BISD would like to thank all the participants in this year’s contest. Congratulations to the winners for their creative designs!
