Tambra Stutes, a senior at Crossroads School, has won first place in state-level competition in the National Peace Essay Contest sponsored by the United States Institute of Peace. Stutes will receive a $500 college scholarship for her winning essay and compete for national awards of up to $10,000. Contest participants composed essays, which were published in their school newspapers.

The essays examined an instance when U.S. efforts were successful in resolving or preventing a conflict and consequent lessons for peacemaking today. Stutes’ essay title is “The Portsmouth Conference.” Students in 48 states, the District of Columbia, U.S. Territories, and 13 high schools overseas participated in this year’s contest. Mr. Tom Walsh is the faculty coordinator for the contest at Crossroads School.
