Emily Thu Nguyen – Southwest Airlines Adopt-a-Pilot Tie Design Winner!
We had a WONDERFUL assembly this morning and a SUPER exciting event in the life of SS. Simon & Jude Cathedral School! Our school takes part int he Southwest Airlines Adopt-A-Pilot Program, which leads students through science, geography, math, writing, and other core subjects, all based in aviation-related activities. Through this program, students also research careers, reinforce life values, and realize the importance of staying in school.
In conjunction with the Adopt-A-Pilot Program, there is also an opportunity for these 5th grade students to participate in a Tie Design Contest, and design the following year’s tie for Adopt-A-Pilot participants to wear. This is a NATIONWIDE contest, and this year’s winner is Emily Thu Nguyen – a 6th grade student here at SS. Simon & Jude Cathedral School!! We are so proud of you Emily – your tie design is so creative, imaginative and BEAUTIFUL!
