Chicago-area students win national handwriting competition

Two Chicago-area elementary school students were recognized as having the best handwriting in their grade level nationwide.

William Markevich, a second-grader at St. Constance School, 5841 W. Strong St., was named Grand National Grade-Level Champion of Zaner-Bloser's 2016 National Handwriting Contest.

"I feel so happy. I didn't know I was going to win, and I didn't believe in myself that I could do it," William said. "I thought I would only win state, but now I'm really happy with what I did."
