Bunnell High School Tenth-Grader Sarah Harrison to be Acknowledged by Google Officials at School Assembly, Artwork to be Showcased

On Wednesday, February 22nd, ambassadors from Google will visit Stratford to announce high schooler Sarah Harrison as the winner of the Connecticut Doodle 4 Google Competition. Harrison’s winning artwork, which will be revealed at an assembly at Bunnell High School, was inspired by the prompt “What I see for the future…” As winner, Harrison will be awarded an Android tablet and the chance to win a $30,000 college scholarship and $50,000 Google for Education grant for her school.

The Doodle 4 Google competition gives K-12 students across the country the opportunity to have their artwork featured on Google’s homepage. This year, a panel of judges including Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles and Grammy Award-winning artist Sia selected the winners for each state or territory, choosing from over 4,200 entries. Beginning on March 1st, final voting will be open to the public. A panel of Googlers will then select a national winner from the top vote-getters, and the winning Doodle will be featured on Google.com.
