Zangan was competing against 1,160 seventh- and eighth-grade students from schools throughout Orange County. She received $50.
The second-place winner, who received $25, is Aaron Knarr of Dale Junior High in Anaheim for his slogan “Education Fever--Catch It!”
The slogan “Education: the Right Stuff” won third place, and $15 went to its writer, Tom Bui, of Venado Middle School in Irvine.
