Black Excellence: Demi Johnson
GULF COAST, Miss. (WLOX) – Remember Demi Johnson? The now ninth grader is headed to the nation’s capital in just a few days for the National Geographic Explorers Festival.
Her well-deserved trip to Washington D.C. comes after she became a top-15 finalist for her award with the Slingshot Challenge this spring. She also received her Girl Scout Silver Award for her research with the Mississippi Oyster Gardening Program.
