She's on the billboard! 🎉
Last month, we shared the exciting news that Stella, a talented 4th grader at Jefferson Elementary School in Pierre, won the Central South Dakota Work Zone Awareness Artwork Contest — and yesterday, her winning design became a reality in a big way.
Representatives from Morris, Inc., the South Dakota Department of Transportation (SD DOT), and the Associated General Contractors (AGC) of South Dakota gathered with Stella in front of her very own billboard to celebrate this incredible milestone.
Stella's artwork is now visible throughout the Pierre area, reminding drivers every day about the importance of work zone safety. It's hard to put into words how proud moments like this make us — seeing a young student's creativity make a real-world impact is exactly why we love being part of this community.
Congratulations again, Stella. You are a rockstar! 🌟
