Congratulations to our America & Me Essay Contest school-level winners:
• Nour Almodhafar
• Mariam Kassem Moussa
• Lana Moussa
We are incredibly proud of these students for their hard work, writing skills, and outstanding representation of Universal Learning Academy through this statewide competition.
A special congratulations goes to Nour Almodhafar, whose essay advanced to the final 30 essays in statewide judging—an impressive accomplishment among submissions from across Michigan.
While there were unexpected delays this year at the state level due to program transitions and technical difficulties, we are grateful that our students are still being recognized for their achievements and efforts.
We would also like to thank our staff members who continue to encourage literacy, student voice, and meaningful academic opportunities. These accomplishments reflect the support, guidance, and encouragement our students receive each day in their classrooms.
As we look ahead to next year, we are excited to continue expanding participation in academic enrichment opportunities such as the America & Me Essay Contest and further strengthen our culture of writing excellence across all grade levels.
Congratulations once again to our student winners, and thank you to our staff, families, and school community for your continued support.
