    Congratulations to 42 Allentown High School students whose creative talent has been recognized as East Central Scholastic Art Winners. The East Central preliminary competition judges the work of students in Carbon, Berks, Lehigh and Northampton counties.

    Nationally, the Scholastic Awards accept original works from students in grades 7-12 and annually receive over 330,000 submissions. All submissions are evaluated by a team of judges from across the state. Winners are chosen based on the student’s originality, technical skills and the emergences of personal vision or voice. Regional Gold Key winners will have their work further submitted for national recognition. Congratulations to the following winners from the Allentown School District!
