Competition Offers Up To $20K For Your Child's Education
November 2, 2023This information just came across my desk, and I wanted to get it out to you right away because time is running out to participate in a competition giving students an opportunity to win up to $20,000 toward their future education. The CHET Dream Big! Competition asks all Connecticut students to answer a question in the form of a drawing, essay, or video.
You must act now because the deadline to enter is Monday, November 6!
The competition is broken up into three different age groups and questions.
- K-4th grade: What is something you could do to make your community or neighborhood better?
- 5th-8th grade: What is something you could do to help make the lives of others better?
- 9th-12th grade: What is a lesson you've learned and how will it influence your future?
