Photography students sophomore Aleta Kibler and senior Athena Lewis recently placed second and third at the county level in the “Woman’s Club Youth Art Competition and Exhibition” hosted by the Woman’s Club of Chevy Chase.

Cash prizes were awarded, and Kibler received a prize of $100 and Lewis $75.

“I feel really proud of myself,” Kibler said. “I was really happy I got $100.”

CHS photography students participate in the contest every year, but only the higher level classes are required to enter.

Photography teacher Amy Gilbert is extremely proud of her students’ fantastic photos.

“I’m honestly still surprised that I won,” Lewis said. “I never would’ve expected that my photo would actually place.”
