2023 T-Shirt Design Contest (chosen by Kristi Valiant)

Laila Kuhn, West Terrace Elementary 

The drawing of the book is adorable and clear, the overall design has a nice focal point, and 'Bring on the books!' is a fun tagline for this year's shirt.

2022 T-Shirt Design Contest (chosen by Julia Starr)

Morgan Fontenot, Stringtown Elementary

Out of all the designs, this one stood out from the rest because of its fun and unique lettering. I liked how the artist made the letters look three dimensional in the word 'battle,' making it really stand out. The design also has nice contrast with the bold letters in the word 'battle' vs. the soft, cloud-like lettering in the word 'books.' The design is large and easy to read, which makes it perfect for a t-shirt design.
