Tanya Allard
and First Grade Students Nancy Grayson Elementary 301 Lurgan Avenue
Shippensburg, PA 17257

Dear Tanya Allard  and First Graders:
Congratulations! You were selected as the one and only very talented and wonderfully polite class
to be named the Grand Prize Winner in our "ARRRRR Class is Polite!" Poster Contest!

We were so happy to hear from students across the country about all the good manners they use in
school (and, of course, outside of school too!) The posters we reviewed during the judging sessions
were extremely creative and fun to see. It was very challenging to narrow down the submissions and
pick winners. But after much careful consideration, we made our decisions and your class poster was
at the very top!

As the Grand Prize Winner , your class will be visited  by David Catrow who has   illustrated many
wonderful  books including Are Pirates Polite! As part of his visit, he   will offer you a very
special art lesson to your class.   I will  be contacting  Ms. Allard  soon
· to schedule the visit and make all the arrangements.
