ISSUE
STATEMENT:
At the May 6, 2024 City Council meeting, Mayor Sean VanGordon will recognize
winning students of the 2024 Earth Day Art Competition.
This year, more than 120 fourth grade students from the Springfield Public School
District 19 participated in the City’s 2024 Earth Day contest by submitting poster
drawings to the competition. This year’s design theme was “Our Water, Our
Future”. City staff voted for the top 20 submissions, and the top six submissions
were submitted to Mayor VanGordon for the final round of judging (due to a three-
way tie for fourth place). Mayor VanGordon personally determined first through
fifth place for the winning art. All of the top 20 pieces are on display in the Youth
Gallery in Springfield City Hall until May 17th.
We’re very excited to honor the talented students who won this year and who will
be recognized before Council. The winning students are:
6th place – Daniela
5th place – Charlie
4th place – Molina
3rd place – Ali
2nd place – Camille
1st place – Maya
