Listen up, KCI! Every year KCI students win awards at our county’s Secondary School Student Writing Contest. So those of you who love WRITING ARE INVITED TO SUBMIT YOUR WORK to the Waterloo County High School English Awards for this year’s Writing Contest. You can submit your work in the following categories: short stories, poetry, informal prose, children’s literature, illustrated children’s books and one-act play scripts. So, if you like creative writing, here’s your chance to show off your talent, get recognition and maybe an award!
You can submit your work in as many categories as you’d like, but no more than two entries in each category. There will be an in-school contest first, and then two winning in-school entries in each category will enter the K-W county-wide Writing Contest in late March.
See your English teacher for more detailed information about the submission criteria and for submission sheets. Remember: the deadline for submission of your entries to your English teacher is March 4, 2010. And in case that you don’t have English this semester, you can see Ms. Cengic in room 263 or in the English office.
We had several winners in this contest. Remember, the deadline for submissions is March 4.
