Students competed in 20 categories (11 carry-in contests involving graphic design, photography and videos, and nine on-site writing and editing categories). Sixty judges sifted through 1,400 entries and awarded first, second and third places, as well as three honorable mentions in Classes 1A/2A, 3A/4A and 5A/6A. Classes are separated only as a means of determining sweepstakes winners in each class, but not individual winners. Points were awarded for first place (5), second place (4), third place (3) and three honorable mentions (1) per contest in every class.
A full list of individuals winners by class will be updated soon.

We will need to receive this fee form by April 29, and registration should be completed by April 25 for each contest and for each student using this form. This will take longer than registration in previous years but will help the state contest go more smoothly.
