May 23rd, 2018 Spelling bee completion results
Urban Pathways has yet again won another competition organized by the BSU and Key Club. Much like February’s Black History Bowl, we were able to earn two of the top three spots in the spelling bee competition. The competition which consisted of middle school students from a few local schools was very competitive and entertaining as students from all schools went round by round using their best abilities to spell words correctly. In the end there were only three contestants left standing, two of whom are from our school. The third place finish went to 6th grader Denasia Johnson (pictured left) and first place champion 6th grader Jayla Williams (pictured centered). These two 6th grade students outlasted over 28 other students, some in grades higher than them to earn this well fought victory. Please be sure to congratulate and recognize these two ladies for a job well done and for continuing to keep our winning streak during these competitions gong.
City League track and field champion We are proud to recognize one of our 11th grade students, Amber Hogan who won the 100 meter hurdles city league championship over the weekend. Amber is a member of Perry traditional high school Track and Field team. Her first place finish time posted at 13.74, which is a little under one second faster than her second place challenger Aaliyah Davis, from Allderdice high school with a time of 14.65. Amber is not only an excellent athlete, she’s also a phenomenal student maintaining a 4.0 GPA all school year long. She embodies what all student athletes here should strive to be like. Everyone be sure to congratulate her on her victory as well as being an outstanding student.
