2013 Best Practices Forum on Dropout Prevention Youth Poster Contest and Registration Scholarship!

2013 Best Practices Forum on Dropout Prevention Youth Poster Contest

 

The National Dropout Prevention Center/Network, in partnership with the Kansas State Department of Education, is sponsoring a Youth Poster Contest to increase youth voice and promote awareness of Dropout Prevention. Through the poster contest, youth have an opportunity to share important messages about dropout prevention in a creative competition.

 

The rules are simple; students should create a unique poster that demonstrates a Dropout Prevention message with the theme, "Connecting in a High Speed World: Preparing for Graduation and Beyond." Each poster will be judged on creativity and how effectively youth convey their message. Poster entries will be displayed and voted on by the attendees at the 2013 Best Practices Forum on Dropout Prevention April 14 -17, 2013 in Kansas City, Missouri. The winning posters will be announced on April 17, 2013. Submissions must be received by April 11, 2013.
