Got Any Good High School Writers?

Among the nine NEH (National Endowment for the Humanities) workshops we have intended, one of the most memorable for us was held at Mt. Vernon in Virginia. It was presented under the auspices of The Bill of Rights Institute.

As we completed this workshop in the summer of 2008, we were informed about an essay contest that provides students with the experience of competing at a high level, and also provides some potentially significant financial rewards as well.

This essay contest was offered again this year. The deadline for entries was December 1, 2009. Please check it out - http://www.beinganamerican.org/. You may want to check back next fall to get your high school students involved then.
