More Contests for Students

The first contest is a poetry contest found though Creative Communication. The contest is open for K-12 sttudents and there are over $3,000 worth of prizes. The students who win the contest in each grade level category win money as well as a free copy of the anthology that is created from the winning entries. Schools with 15 or more kids accepted into the anthology will receive a writing achievement award and they are eligible for a $250 grant. There are three deadlines for this contest:

December 11, 2008 (for the fall 2008 contest)
April 14, 2009 (for the spring 2009 contest)
August 18, 2009 (for the summer 2009 contest)

The second contest is Global Schoolnet’s Cyber Fair 2009 contest. As stated on their website, “students are encouraged to prepare for the future - by thinking about the possible future, the probable future, the preferable future and the preventable future. Projects that best illustrate “future thinking” are invited to the World Future Society international conference in Chicago, Illinois, July 2009.” Click here for more information.
