The results for the 2025 Regional Scholastic Art Awards are in and our amazing Wakefield Art students claim a whopping 546 Awards! We also picked up 38 Portfolio awards!
Portfolios are a thematic body of 6 works that is a visual culmination of 4 years of Art and is limited to Seniors.
In total, our students won 187 individual Gold Keys, 124 Silver Keys, and 197 Honorable Mentions. They also won 32 Gold Keys and 6 Silver Keys for their Art portfolios.
One Wakefield art student received the prestigious American Vision Award. Morgan Heyck-Williams won for a second time (she also won American Visions in her Freshman year) for her illustration “Drowning” (teacher is Nancy Flores). There are only 5 American Visions Awards chosen each year from the Scholastic Gold Key winners and these are considered Best in Show!
The full list of students who won awards is shared below.
