6th grader Alec Nagy Wins Copper Run T-shirt design contest

When 12 year old 6th grader Alec Nagy's art won the Copper Run t-shirt design contest he was very surprised. Though he enjoys art his favorite subject in Mrs. Barker's class is Social Studies. "I like learning about ancient people and discoveries about ancient people." Said Nagy. Recently the children in his class were required to create a rather in-depth Egyptian project and Nagy chose to cover Ramses II. When asked what fact he most remembered about Ramses he said, "He had 90 children." Though he admitted he was only a great ruler "sometimes."

Alec enjoys football and baseball and is on a baseball team with Coach Rich Bakke. He has an older brother at Bret Harte and pointed out that he himself will be 13 in April.

Throughout his time as a student at Copper School Nagy said his favorite teacher has been Ms. Acuna. "She's really nice and doesn't get angry."
