Viktoria Adamovicova, a student at Piedmont Charter Academy, recently won the Noon Optimist Club’s essay contest. The theme for the essay was “Who is an everyday hero that brings out the
optimism in you?” Chloe Downey and Sharon Perdomo, also of Piedmont Charter Academy, placed second and third respectively.

Viktoria was awarded a certificate for the honor. In addition, the essay has been sent to the district level to be judged along with winners from other Optimist Clubs in the district. College scholarships are available for top winners at the district level.
