Pike-Delta-York Local School District

Throughout the semester, our Digital Photography students participate in a Top Photographer Challenge, each centered around a new theme. Student photos are shared anonymously with staff across the district, who vote based on how well the image stays within the theme, overall image quality, creativity and originality, composition, point of view, and the mood the photo creates.

Congratulations to Kacey Lamb, our Top Photographer winner for the “Snow Landscape” theme.

Our students put their creativity to work with original “Snowmen on Valentine’s Day” stories inspired by the Snowmen at Night series by Caralyn Buehner! ❄️❤️

Students explored the full writing process — brainstorming ideas, drafting their stories, peer editing, revising, and illustrating their final published pieces. We are so proud of their imagination, collaboration, and hard work bringing these snowy stories to life!
