WS/FCS Photo Connor Kendall poses with Frann Paige. Clemmons student wins national t-shirt contest SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE When Connor Kendall heard that he created the winning t-shirt design in Aeropostale's "What Makes You Smile" contest, he was just a bit excited. "I just went ballistic," said Connor, a second-grad er at Clemmons Elementary School. "I started jump ing up and down." Connor's design - several sharks on a blue back ground merrily chasing down a P.S. logo - was selected as the national winner among second graders. The contest asked elementary stu dents to design a shirt for Aeropostale's P.S. label that would make them smile. "I've been learning about them since kindergarten, and they always make me smile," Connor said. Connor also was smiling about the prizes he won: a $500 gift card from Aeropostale, a tramed copy ot his shirt and 50 shirts to give to family and friends <- including his twin brother, Ryan, and his sister Kelly, a fifth grader at Clemmons Elementary. Connor's art teacher. Frann Paige, won $5,000 for her classroom, and each second-grader received a T shirt. The Aeropostale store at Hanes Mall also will have a special sale for Clemmons Elementary families March 21-24. One national winner was selected in each grade in first througn fifth grades. About 46,000 designs were submitted from 566 schools. People could vote online for their favorite shirts, and then judges selected the winner from the top 100 vote-getters in each grade. Paige has had great success in this contest. Another 13 of her students were selected as finalists: first graders Max Majorel, Ashley Nowak, Ava McBride and Karly Smith; second-graders Madison Ayers, Bethany Davis; Vivian Do and Lorna Fowler; third grader Panagiottis Vgenopoulos; and fourth-graders Nikki Einstein, Ellie McCutchen, Sophie Severs and Reid Withers.

Project uses art to tackle race relations SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE The first of the ECHO Network Teams, a 12 month leadership-devel opment program, has launched its community project, a conversation on race. The conversations were driven by a collabo rative art project, the Big Tent, started at Wake Forest University. Led by professor and artist David Finn, the Big Tent includes artwork and texts that depict conflicts in race and ethnicity. Several dozen com munity members attended the event and were guid ed in small group discus sions by Wake Forest stu dents. Within their groups, participants dis cussed stereotypes and perceptions of ethnici ties, barriers to discus sions about race, and what elements in society contribute to strained race relations. "These David Finn speaks. Submitted Photo*. - fm The crowd listens. casual conversations about race in a comfort able setting are very important to moving us forward in terms of how we all relate to "those of another race or ethnicity," said Natasha Gore, exec utive director of the ECHO Network.
