Lisbon PWS Geography Club‏

Lisbon - On Wednesday, January 11, ten students participated in the initial
round of the National Geographic Bee at Philip W. Sugg Middle School in
Lisbon Falls. Ciera Miller took first place in the competition and is
looking to qualify for the State Level Bee to be held in March. Second
place went to Jacob Fusaro. Both winners were provided with certificates,
medals, and gift cards for Books-a-Million. Ciera also won a full-color
reference book to further her studies in geography and social sciences.
 
Ms. Amy Kissell, seventh grade English language arts / social studies
teacher, was the Bee coordinator and advisor for the group, practicing and
studying for the competition in the previous weeks and months after school.
 
"All of the members of the PWS Geography Bee worked very hard in preparation
for the school level National Geographic Bee. It was really fun to see their
efforts pay off as they answered many challenging questions correctly in the
multiple rounds of competition. I'm so proud of everyone who challenged
themselves to participate," shared Kissell.
