Eligibility: Sophomores and juniors in the current academic school year are eligible to be nominated by their school's English department. Nominations should be based on whether the writer exhibits the power to inform and move an audience through language. Entries are only accepted from teachers; students may not self-nominate.

Schools in the United States, Canada, Virgin Islands and American Schools Abroad are eligible to nominate students. Nominating schools must be US accredited.

The number of nominees allowed from each school is determined by the current total enrollment in grades 10, 11, and 12. The enrollment figure used must be from an official administrative report of the current year and must not include ninth-grade students.

Use the following guide for nominations:

Under 500 students: 1 nominee

500-999 students: 2 nominees

1,000-1,499 students: 3 nominees

1,500-1,999 students: 4 nominees

2,000-2,499 students: 5 nominees

2,500-2,999 students: 6 nominees

3,000-3,999 students: 7 nominees

4,000 or more students: 8 nominees

Award Specifics: Nominated students must submit a themed writing in PDF form. Beginning with the 2023 contest, participants will no longer submit "best" writings. When filling out the entry form, you will also be asked to give a title and brief introduction to the work.

Themed Writing - must be written based on the topic developed by the Achievement Awards Advisory Committee. Maximum length for the theme writing is ten (10) pages. The student's name must appear in the upper left-hand corner of each page.

Title and Submission Description of the Themed section written by the student in present tense. The description should be written so that the review committee clearly understands the importance and purpose of the proposed submission. It should also be written to generate the interest of your intended audience. This introduction will be included on the digital entry form and should not be included on the PDF. (This section is preferred but not required for eligibility.)

General Directions for Themed Writing:

One teacher completes one entry form per student and uploads the student's "Themed" writings in PDF form. Only teachers/administrators are allowed to submit student work.

The student's name should appear in the upper left-hand corner of each page. This is important so we can judge each piece accurately! (If you are submitting an arts-based entry like a photo essay or graphic novel, you may adjust this format as long as we can tell which piece is which. Email aa@ncte.org with any questions.)

The page number must appear in the upper right-hand corner of each page.

The school's name must not appear on the paper or within the body of writing.

Please use legible type - no smaller than 11 or 12 point.

Double space with one inch margins on all sides. This does not apply to poetry.

Remember that only excerpts that are within the ten (10) page maximum from research papers, term papers, and novels will be accepted - not the full text.

Late entries will not be accepted.

The Themed piece should be written from the students' personal voice and perspective. Take care to not make it sound like a school assignment! The judges want to see your creativity and personality in the piece.

Judging: Teams of teachers across the nation will judge entries using a secure judging site. Entries with top scores will be selected for the Achievement Award in Writing First Class. Writings are judged holistically on content, purpose, audience, tone, word choice, organization, development, and style.

If you are interested in signing up to judge, please email aa@ncte.org.

Below are the guidelines by which your writing will be evaluated by the NCTE judges. Keep these guidelines in mind as you draft and revise:

1. Expression of Ideas

Writing conveys meanings; reflects strong thinking

Thematic meaning(s) effectively controlled

Themed writing responds to the stated prompt

Piece is unified, and builds upon itself, even if the structure is nontraditional

Sense of clarity of purpose, completeness, and closure

2. Language Use

Writing style appropriate to content and genre

Writing reflects mastery of technical aspects of writing (e.g., control over punctuation and syntax)

Writer uses language powerfully, via apt, original word choice, unique phrasing

Strong flow produced via syntactical control and variation

Writer effectively employs detail, evocative language, and/or imagery to enliven writing and to express ideas

3. Unique Perspective and Voice

Uniqueness of writer is evident through stylistic choices

Writing conveys unique, authentic, original perspective

Style conveys unique, authentic, original voice

Awards: Results are announced in May. Starting with the 2023 contest, a new structure for awards will be used.

To reflect various levels of distinction and recognition, there will now be four, rather than two, designations:

Achievement Awards in Writing First Class

Superior

Excellent

Merit

All nominated students will receive their appropriate certificate from their nominating teacher. Additionally, those who receive the First Class award will have their name and their school's name appear on the NCTE website.
The recipients of the Certificate of Superior Writing for 2022 are listed by state below.

The scholarship is available to female high school seniors nationwide who have played a form of organized football (flag, tackle, touch, etc.), have earned a minimum 3.0 grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) during their high school academic career and plan to enroll full-time at an accredited four-year college or university.

Student-athletes interested in applying for the scholarship may click HERE or visit buccaneers.com/community. Applications are open until April 18, 2025. The scholarship recipients will be announced at a later date.

The She is Football Scholarship is part of the Buccaneers' commitment to investing in the next generation of female leaders. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Foundation hosts the largest girls flag football tournament in the country with the Girls High School Flag Football Preseason Classic, a multi-day event that brings together more than 100 high school teams and nearly 3,000 student athletes in a round robin-style competition.

The Buccaneers will also host their inaugural She is Football Weekend, presented by Jabil, this year. The new flagship event is set to take place on Friday, March 7, and on International Women's Day, Saturday, March 8, with the She is Football Girls Flag Football Tournament taking place across both days featuring eight of Florida's top high schools. The weekend will also include a women's career summit headlined by Erin Andrews & Charissa Thompson, a 5K run, walk & stroll and a market that showcases women-owned businesses.

In addition, the team has established the Jr. Bucs Girls Flag Football League, a first-of-its-kind league in the City of Tampa, where the Foundation covers league fees and equipment for girls at 24 Tampa Parks and Recreation centers. Additionally, the team created the Jr. Bucs Flag Football Program, which grows the game of football in more than 90 Tampa Bay middle schools and supports over 35,000 female students every year.

It is impossible to estimate the contribution a great teacher makes to our nation, to society, and to the students taught during a lifetime of devoted service to the teaching profession. Unfortunately, there exists, and always has existed, a severe shortage of great teachers. The Florida Retired Educators Foundation (FREF) has established a fund to assist the many young people who are interested in teaching, but unable to fulfill this goal without financial assistance.

ELIGIBILITY

Must be a GRADUATING HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR IN 2023

Ability to relate to and work with people of all ages.

Academic aptitude and achievement.

Commitment to service, with special interest in teaching children and youth.

Economic need

Emphasis is placed on SAT and/or ACT scores. The minimum score for SAT is 1,000 or above (Reading and Math sections) or ACT is 22 or above.

Participation and leadership in school and community activities.

CONDITIONS

A scholarship is awarded to a high school graduating senior for one year and can be renewed for a maximum of four years of college if the student maintains a satisfactory level of achievement. Satisfactory achievement is defined as a 2.0 grade point average with no failing grade in any subject.

The amount of the scholarships shall be determined and granted annually by the Board of Trustees of the Foundation. Scholarships are currently $1,000 per year. The year for which the scholarship is granted shall be from July 1 to June 30.

Scholarship recipients may attend any accredited Florida public or private community college, four‑year college or university, provided that their programs are consistent with the goal of becoming a qualified teacher. To ensure renewal qualifications, the recipient will provide the Scholarship Committee of FREF with copies of each quarterly or semester report to parents.

Challenge

You get it. You've grasped an important scientific theory, concept or principle.

Now can you share your insight?

An inventive video can get across complex material that would take pages of text to communicate.

To take part in the Breakthrough Junior Challenge (the "Challenge"), create a short video (3:00 minutes max) to explain a big idea in one of these fields:

Your film can take any form you like: animation, talking head, documentary, dramatic reconstruction, whatever. It's worth keeping in mind that video is a dynamic visual medium - using diagrams, simulations, physical demonstrations etc. is a lot more effective than standing in front of a blackboard talking.

The videos will be judged according to the following criteria:

If you're looking for guidance, you can see some of last year's top-scoring entries here and below. But remember, to show 'creativity' your film should be as original as possible.

Children of Warriors National Presidents' Scholarship

It is important to acknowledge the sacrifices of our servicemembers who preserve our freedom, but that is not enough. The sacrifices of the children of those who served should also be honored. Providing funds to assist these children so they can pursue higher education is a concrete way of showing how much we, as a nation, care.

The American Legion Auxiliary sponsors the Children of Warriors National Presidents' Scholarship to support the children of our warriors. These scholarships are awarded to 15 students annually who excel in academics and volunteer in their communities.

Flight Scholarships - Friends of Albert Whitted Airport

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
AEROSPACE DAY 2023

On April 29, 2023, St. Pete Air and Friends of Albert Whitted Airport hosted the PASSAGE Aerospace Day. There was real excitement in the newest hangar at the airport, with presentations, workshops, and discovery flights. For many, the highlight was the personal stories of the incredible world-class speakers. Their lives show that stellar possibilities present themselves when aviation doors open. Here's a quick recap.

Kevin DeBruin

Kevin DeBruin knew that he wanted to be an aerospace engineer from the age of 10. He's an expert in NASA's mission and spacecraft design process and he loves to share his knowledge by educating and inspiring others. His accolades include:

Being a NASA rocket scientist

Having a Master of Science in Aerospace

Being an author of 'To Dare Mighty Things,' and 'To NASA and Beyond.'

Reflecting on the event, Kevin said "It shows how vital aviation and technology is to the community at St. Pete."

Nicole Stott

Nicole Stott is a retired NASA astronaut. She served as a flight engineer on the International Space Station and was a mission specialist.

She's also an author and an artist, and she combines her awe and wonder of her space flight experience with her artwork.

Speaking at the event, Nicole said "When I think about education, I think about inspiration as well, igniting curiosity, and getting kids out to an airport and looking at things in a whole new way."

Nicole was clearly showing her love for Albert Whitted Airport on the day. "Smaller airports like this offer an opportunity you can't get in a lot of other places."

Lee Giat

As a filmmaker, pilot, and science communicator, Lee Giat combines his love for space and film. He first picked up a camera at the age of 7, and he holds a Multimedia Production degree and a background in astrophysics.

Lee has recently returned from a 60-day solo flight expedition, Passage Flight. He's the CEO of Flying Ostrich Media.

An incredible experience

Dunedin High School's robotics STEAM students were so thrilled by the event that they posted on Facebook.

"Students had the great privilege of meeting Lee Giat, Passage Flight; Kevin J DeBruin, Space Expert (To Dare Mighty Things author); Astronaut, Nicole Stott; and Héllen Távora, Airborne Astronomist Ambassador at the Friends of Albert Whitted airport STEM event: Aerospace Day. What an experience! There are no words that can describe how much students enjoyed the experience! Students were enlightened about all possible career paths in aviation and space exploration."

Dream big and blast off

We can imagine the dreams that were inspired during Aerospace Day. And when it comes to dreams, we say: the sky's the limit.

Our mission at Friends of AWA is to raise awareness of Albert Whitted Airport as an asset to the city of St. Petersburg. We all know that Albert Whitted Airport has an incredible history. We think that it should have an incredible future, too.

Speaking at the event, Walt Driggers, Executive Director of Friends of Albert Whitted Airport said "Friends of Albert Whitted Airport was created to be able to educate the community about the value of the airport."

For almost 100 years, Albert Whitted Airport has stood proudly as an essential and respected landmark in the downtown St. Pete landscape. We can see why so many people - both in the local community and in the aviation community - are working so hard to highlight all the things the community loves about this St. Pete gem.

Albert Whitted Airport is going to keep reaching for the stars.
