Congratulations to Monica Chen who was the grand-prize winner in Junior Scholastic’s “Can you Find Mapman?” Contest!  Monica is an eighth grade student at Amity Middle School Orange.  There were approximately 2,000 entries in the contest.  Monica was runner-up last year and was encouraged by family and teachers to enter again this year.  She participated in this yearly contest by figuring out Mapman’s destination which was Barbados then had to create a map of that Caribbean nation.  Each year a different location is chosen then submitted to Junior Scholastic in New York City.
