The Poster Contest is now closed. Read on to learn more about the contest, the winner, and the finalists!
Kid Governor Cristiano is committed to promoting physical activity and ensuring that every 5th grader in Connecticut is taking steps to be physically active. To achieve the second point of his Getting Fit 4 Fun platform, Kid Governor Cristiano Almeida and The Connecticut Democracy Center teamed up with the Department of Children and Families and CT Family Day on a statewide poster contest!
Cristiano invited 5th graders to submit artwork that answers the question:
In what ways do you and your family stay physically active?
After much discussion, Kid Governor Cristiano, his Cabinet, and partners from the Department of Children and Families selected Audrey Chang from Fawn Hollow Elementary School in Monroe as the contest winner!
Kid Governor Ellie and her Cabinet also identified 12 Finalists. Congratulations to these students and all who submitted artwork!
