Submissions sought for essay contest on school choice

Written by Laura Lawley on July 2, 2011.

It is summer, but fourth- and fifth-grade students who like to write have a chance at winning some funds.

Students may submit a 600-word essay on “Why School Choice is Important.” Winners will receive their choice of $100 cash, a $100 U.S. Savings Bond or a $100 gift certificate.

The contest is sponsored by Americans For Prosperity in honor of Milton Friedman. Friedman, recipient of the 1976 Nobel Prize for Economic Science, and his wife established the Milton and Rose D. Friedman Foundation to promote parental choice of schools.

Submissions must be sent to debbiehealy58@aol.com by July 20 and must include the student’s name and full address. Winners will be announced July 29.
