SMALL SPEAKER, BIG MESSAGE — Two members of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority adjust the podium and microphone for Skylar Koontz, a fifth-grade student at Woodsdale Middle School in Wheeling, who won the YWCA Annual “Project on Racism.” Koontz was one of three students — along with third grader Ethan Thomas of New River Elementary School in Fayette County and senior Nada Siva of Parkersburg High School in Wood County — who read their essays on racism at the awards luncheon. The Beta Beta Omega Chapter of AKA Sorority assisted with hosting the event.
