Each entry must have a cover sheet that includes the title of the work, the student s name, the name of the student s school, and the name of a sponsoring teacher who will attest that all of the work has been done by the student. Do not place student s name or name of school on any page other than the cover page. Essays should NOT be bound in any way. Please fasten them with paper clips. All entries should be neat and legible.
Good photocopies are acceptable.
Schools may send as many essays as desired, but we encourage teachers to send us only their highest quality work. Judging All entries will be reviewed by two preliminary judges. Excerpts from the first-place essays from each division will be published on the Awesome Texas student page along with a list of the finalists and order of finish. Preliminary screening We suggest that each school screen entries through peer review, faculty review or through parent committees. Suggestions for a national health-care system drew initial support then were put aside several years ago.
