Limitless Learners Contest for Kids

Hello teacher-friends! Do you want to help your students WIN $500 for college plus $1000 for a school or library?!?!

This year, Education.com is proud to offer $9,000 in prizes as part of their Limitless Learners Contest! I’d love to share this amazing opportunity with you, your readers, and the talented children in your community.

The contest encourages kids in/entering K-5th grade to think creatively about what education means to them and use their art, writing, and language skills to express their ideas. A winner will be chosen from each grade level to receive $500 for college and a free lifetime membership to Education.com for their parent or educator! The winning child can choose to nominate their school or local library to win a $1,000 donation as well. We’d love it if one of your readers' kids were the recipient of this prize!
