After several years, we were thrilled to bring back our Valdosta City Schools Holiday Card Design Contest for the 2025 season and our Wildcats did not disappoint! Each winning design will be featured on Dr. Craig Lockhart’s official holiday cards, shared with community partners, local organizations, and supporters across our region.
This year’s talented winners are:
🏆 Rylee Shaw – 5th Grade, Sallas Mahone Elementary
🏆 Avery Cribbs – 8th Grade, Valdosta Middle School
🏆 Iyanna Grant – 12th Grade, Valdosta High School
🏆 Jasmine Fountain – 12th Grade, Valdosta High School
These students beautifully incorporated our black and gold school colors, highlighted what makes Valdosta City Schools special which our Wildcat pride, BelieVe spirit, and 3V Way all while capturing the festive feel of the holiday season.
Please join us in celebrating these incredible young artists! 🎉
We are so proud to showcase their creativity as part of this revived VCS tradition.
