"If I was the Mayor of Blades I would" Essay Contest

Date Posted: Wednesday, March 26th, 2014

Blades Elementary School will be holding an essay contest for their Fifth graders.  The title of the essay is “If I was the Mayor of Blades I would”.  The Mayor has been asked to assist in the reading and picking of 2 winners.  The Mayor will then accompany the children and guardian to a lunch at Cafe Milano’s courtesy of the Blades PTO.

The essay contest will be 200 words and coincides with the last marking period lessons on understanding the government, as well as the field trip that they have planned to Philadelphia.

For the children, the essay contest will start March 17th and will end on March 31st.  Each essay will be coded so as to not know the students name to make for a fair grading.  Winners will be announced April 14th.

The PTO is hoping this will be an annual event.

The Mayor was very pleased to accept this honor and is looking forward to reading the essays. Good Luck to all the participants.
