For Permission Form: (download here)
This international contest is intended to encourage children ages 11 - 13 to creatively express what peace means to them. The 2012-2013 contest theme is "Imagine Peace."
The contest allows the students to share their unique image of peace so that we may all have greater tolerance and international understanding.
The Billerica Lions is proud to sponsor this contest at the Marshall Middle School, the Locke Middle School and Innovation Academy Charter School. The contest is open to students who will be 11, 12, or 13 years of age on November 15, 2012.
Janet Morris will be the contact for Innovation Academy Charter School and will pick up the entries at the school on November 2nd – she will then bring them to Lion Joan Parcewski, chair of the contest.
The contest will be held on November 7th at Billerica Access Television (BATV) with a small reception for participants, their families and school officials to celebrate their work. All artwork will be displayed - for approximately one month - at BATV. There will be a winning entry chosen from each participating school and submitted to the district peace poster competition which is held later in the year. All students will receive a certificate recognizing their participation in the contest.
