Newell Elementary School student Ava Strovinsky, 8, shown with her art teacher, Tamara Diaczenko, on Friday is the grand-prize third-grade winner of Aeropostale’s nationwide “What Makes You Smile” art contest. Ava’s achievement means Newell Elementary School will be receiving a $5,000 grant for art supplies from Aeropostale.
