Abigail Jung, a senior at Smithtown High School West, has won the New York State VFW Voices of Democracy audio-essay contest. The theme was “What are the Greatest Attributes of Our Democracy?”
The VFW contest began in 1947 and provides students with a unique opportunity to express themselves in a democratic and patriotic-themed recorded essay.
Abigail will be traveling to Washington, D.C. in March to compete for the national prize, which is a $35,000 college scholarship.
