Yesterday Ray attended the Missouri Press Foundation's award banquet in Columbia. Continuing in his award-winning tradition, he brought home an honorable mention award for best story in education. The piece was one about a local middle school adding vegan lunch alternatives to the menu in response to the request of several students. Here's what they said about his article.
"For some, this would've been 'in other business' in a school board story. Good eye to see potential here."
In addition, the paper he writes for was selected as the number one paper in its class (papers with the largest circulation) of weeklies.
It is exciting for him to working for such an outstanding paper and a group of talented colleagues.
The current award is based on articles he wrote from his date of hire, August 1, 2007, through the end of the 2007 calendar year. I expect he'll get more awards next year when they have 12 months of stories to select from. Can you tell I'm proud of my hubby?
PS. Speaking of being proud. Titus recently was evaluated for the gifted education program in NKC schools, called Sage. The report indicates his IQ is in the top 0.4% of the population. Pretty cool, huh?
