Student essay contest to focus on bullying
State Sen. Marty Golden sponsors an essay contest for students in his senate district every year but he decided that a change of pace was needed this time around.
So instead of asking students to write essays with the theme “If I were state senator for a day I would…” Golden (R-C-Bay Ridge-Southwest Brooklyn) is changing the theme to reflect a serious issue going on in schools today.
The essay contest will deal with bullying.
