Check out contest rules on the Contest Tab (above on the blue banner on this website)––or in the email you received from the school.

When Was The Last Time You Did Something That Scared Or Challenged You?

Be sure to tell us your story in vivid detail so we’ll feel like we are “right there with you” at the moment you have chosen to share. Did you learn something about yourself at that moment? Use your best writing strategies to make your entry as strong as it can be.
