Sam Barrett Receives Common Wealth Writing Contest Award


Junior Sam Barrett has been selected by PNC Bank as a winner in the Common Wealth Writing Contest. His winning essay explored how today’s generations use Wikipedia, and Sam had the opportunity to meet Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales at the Common Wealth Awards ceremony at the Hotel duPont on April 25. Wales, Jon Bon Jovi and Edward Norton were this year’s honorees.

Sam was one of three area high school students to receive the writing prize. He is one of two from Tower Hill to have won the writing contest since it was established in 2000. Congratulations!
