EDMONTON, Ky. (January 22, 2019) – Metcalfe County High School received a $10,000 check Tuesday from POWERADE to benefit the school’s athletic program.
MCHS students, with the help of Library Media Specialist Anita Love, submitted a video describing why the school deserved to win the “Power Your School” top prize. Entries were judged on creativity/originality, school need, incorporation of POWERADE, and quality.
The MCHS video described how sports at Metcalfe County High School is “about so much more than the time spent on the field and the court, it shapes the adults they will become.” The video was chosen as one of 50 grand prizes worth $10,000 each. There were 150 schools that won prizes worth $2,000 each.
Timmy Garrett and Daniel Trowbridge, representatives from Clark Beverage Group, Inc., presented the check to Principal Clint Graham and Athletic Director Matt Shirley during a pep rally at the school.
