At the end of August, Wheatley 9th Grader Charlotte Iannone learned that a short story she had submitted to an online contest had earned her 1st Place! The Amy Wahl Short Story Contest was established to honor a librarian and writer who died far too young.

Charlotte submitted her story Footprints Washed Away to the contest, which was one of the stories she wrote for last year’s Vintage. Congratulations to Charlotte!
