Miles City Student Wins Statewide Law Enforcement Appreciation Poster Contest

May 19, 2025

Attorney General Austin Knudsen has announced Jordyn Muggli, a fifth-grade student at Lincoln Grade School in Miles City, as the winner of the 2025 Law Enforcement Appreciation Poster Contest, held annually during National Police Week.

Jordyn’s artwork was selected from more than 175 entries submitted by students across 35 classrooms throughout Montana. In her artist statement, Jordyn wrote: “We know that the highway patrol and police are always there to protect us [no] matter what :).”

“Montana is a state that ‘Backs the Blue,’ and this contest is a great way to instill that mentality in children at a young age,” said Attorney General Knudsen. “I know that law enforcement officers appreciate the support they receive from the community—especially from Montana’s youngest citizens. Thanks to everyone who participated, and I can’t wait to visit Miles City and celebrate with this year’s winner.”

As part of the celebration, Attorney General Knudsen and Montana Highway Patrol Colonel Kurt Sager will visit Jordyn and her class later this month. The class will receive a $750 award courtesy of Stockman Bank.

Jordyn’s winning poster will be displayed in Montana Department of Justice offices statewide and made available to law enforcement agencies across the state.

In addition to the overall winner, six regional winners were also selected. Each will receive a $250 prize from Stockman Bank and an ice cream social delivered by local highway patrol troopers.

The annual poster contest, announced each February by the Montana Department of Justice, invites elementary students to express their appreciation for the men and women in law enforcement who put their lives on the line each day to keep Montana communities safe.
