Local student Ashlynn Saffle has taken top honors in an essay contest.
Ashlynn entered a history essay contest through the local chapter of the Daughters of the Revolution, the Taneycomo Chapter. Ashlynn entered the contest during her eighth-grade year at School of the Ozarks.
Ashlynn, 14, is the daughter of Alissa and Travys Saffle. Ashlynn will be a freshman at School of the Ozarks this year.
In April, Saffle received the news that her essay received first place in the state-wide contest. Ashlynn went on to win first place in the South Central Division competition, and her essay was sent on to the National competition, where it was up against thousands of entries.
Ashlynn learned this week that she placed third in Essay Contest Nationals, receiving a certificate and a cash award.
Congratulations, Ashlynn, on your outstanding achievement!
