Three  juniors: Anastasia Antonova,  Tess Elder, and Kyle van de Kamer received photography awards in two different competitions under the instruction of Visual Arts Department Chair Mr. Chris Johnson.
“The American Association of Physics Teachers,” a national contest, requires that its contestants take a photo of a law of physics in action either  natural or contrived and include a description of the law of physics depicted.
A physics teacher must then select the photos he or she wishes to send in to be judged.
The submissions of Tess Elder and Anastasia Antonova exhibited their work along with the photos of 98 other students at a conference for AAPT.
The second competition, “California Through My Eyes,” is put on by California State University of Sacramento in conjunction with the California State Legislature.
Students must submit a photo of how they see California alongside a short essay.
Runner-up Kyle van de Kamer represented Laguna Blanca in its fifth year as a participant in this competition.
