Friendswood Junior High art students do it again winning three awards at the Texas Duck Stamp Competition.
Cali Branham placed third with Megan Fernandez and Jessica Waltenbaugh both earned Honorable Mention awards.
This is a statewide competition open to all schools across the state. The United States Fish & Wildlife Service administers the Junior Duck Stamp Design Competition as part of its educational program.
After studying waterfowl anatomy and habitat, students apply their knowledge by drawing, painting or sketching a picture of an eligible North American waterfowl species.
Students from around the United States submit drawings to their state, territory or district competition. Winners from these competitions, called the "Best of Show," are then submitted to the Federal Junior Duck Stamp Design Competition.
One image from the 53 Best of Show entries is selected for the next Junior Duck Stamp.
All entrants are awarded certificates of appreciation.
The FJH art teacher is Ron Brown.
