    Thanks for the info Judy - I'll pass it on to the local teachers if we get
    the grant from Crayola. The grant is to host 3 workshops (largest district,
    region xv districts, and homeschoolers) and exhibit some of the children's
    art in our museum. We will not be entering students work in the contest, but
    providing information and exhibit space to local teachers

    Kim, FYI I have served on the panel to judge entries in the past. As a
    helpful hint, be sure to follow the directions exactly. This includes the
    students statement and other specific things. There are many entrants and
    sometimes it is the deciding factor in who is selected. Hope this helps.
