Dylan Sims, a student columnist from North Central High School, and Christina Stokes, a Camden High School student columnist, are to be commended for their recent articles: Dylan’s “Christmas Carols offer more than just a catchy tune” in the Dec. 10 edition and Christina’s “Show your Christmas spirit by sharing your blessings” in Friday’s edition. Over time, the student columnists from our county’s high schools have demonstrated strength of character in their writings, and we can feel very gratified for their home and school influences. The interpretation of the “The Twelve Days of Christmas” was new to me and very thought-provoking.
