2 Lewis Middle School Students Named Finalists in Do the Write Thing Challenge

Disponible en: Español

Eighth graders Neida Argüello and Xavier Bishop of Lewis Middle School have been named finalists in Do the Write Thing Challenge. This year, more than 990 students participated and submitted their essays for the Houston/Harris County Do the Write Thing Texas Challenge. The Do the Write Thing Texas Challenge is an anti-violence and academic program targeted at middle school students. It provides youth the opportunity to think profoundly about the issues surrounding violence and enables them to express themselves through a nationally recognized program. As finalists, both Argüello and Bishop will attend a recognition ceremony that honors the finalists set for May 11 at Minute Maid Park. Argüello’s language arts teacher is Rhonda D. Guitroz and Bishop’s teacher is Yolanda Hadnot.
