Paint Branch’s own Michael Mekonnen won second place in Math in the 30th ACT-SO Competition. The Afro-Academic, Cultural, Technological and Scientific Olympics(ACT-SO) is sponsored by the NAACP and is a year long enrichment program designed to recruit, improve and encourage academic advancement among African-American high school students.

As a reward for being a gold medalist from Maryland, Michael attended the national competition and awards ceremony on an all-expense-paid trip to Walt Disney World’s Coronado Springs Resort in Orlando, Florida. The prizes do not just end there; Michael also won $1000 and a new laptop computer. From all those here at PB: Congratulations, Michael!
