Idaho Education Department Opens Annual Student Holiday Card Contest; Entries Due November 16
The Idaho Department of Education announced on October 21 that its annual student holiday card contest is open to all public and charter school students in kindergarten through 12th grade, in two divisions: K-6 and grades 7-12.
Winning entries from each grade level will be displayed on the department's website, and two overall winners will have their artwork printed as the department's official holiday card this year, receiving finished cards as keepsakes. Superintendent of Public Instruction Debbie Critchfield said judging the contest is one of her favorite duties and that picking winners from the impressive entries is never easy.
Artwork must depict a winter or holiday scene on 8.5-by-11-inch paper and be hand-drawn using materials such as watercolor, construction paper, markers or crayons; pencil sketches, fabric designs, photography, video, digital art and work containing copyrighted images are not accepted. Entries must be delivered or postmarked by Monday, November 16, via the department's online form or by mail to its Boise office. Winners will be announced in December.
