2008 Scholastic Art and Writing Awards!

<p>Do you think if we don't go they send us our medals? Because that's all I really care about. I'd like to hang it on my wall. :)</p>

<p>If I'd won, would I have gotten something in the mail already? The website says mid-April but it seems like most of you guys have already received notification...</p>

<p>i'm not going to nyc lol</p>

<p>^ I'm not sure-- scholastic seems sort of disorganized with the awards, so maybe you still have a chance depending on your category and region? It is sort of late now though, because they did send the earliest awards at the end of march.</p>

<p>If you don't go, they'll mail it to you--I think it said late July.</p>

<p>National silver for General Writing Portfolio! I must say I'm pretty surprised.</p>

<p>Our school's county website already has the awards listed...no portfolio golds at all, it seems, but I think someone mentioned portfolio golds were being sent out later than the others? Haha part of me is just holding out for Art Portfolio but it probably didn't happen.</p>

<p>congratulations!!</p>

<p>Congratulations to all of you guys! I was hoping to enter this for the first time this year, but that didn't work out because of family issues...</p>

<p>Good luck to everyone going to NYC!</p>

<p>National award recipients posted on the website: The</a> Scholastic Art & Writing Awards</p>

<p>Congratulations to all involved.</p>

<p>The only writing award in the freakin' state! WOOT!</p>

<p>National Silver for Art Portfolio :)</p>

<p>Sadly, I don't think the NYC thing is going to happen. I can always hope for next year, I guess.</p>

<p>On a side note, did anyone join the "Gold Key Society"?</p>

<p>yeah, what is that? it seems so... elitist......</p>

<p>Lol, I know...encouraging you to put badges on your facebook and whatnot...</p>

<p>I didn't get any national awards, so I'm kind of sad. But whatever, I guess. Congratulations to all those who did. :)</p>

<p>I do have one question, though. Was I supposed to fax that student notification report and consent sheet? Because I didn't. So would they not have judged my Short Short Story because I never verified the information?</p>

<p>Facebook badges? Lol. I say join it. ;)</p>

<p>Woah, une see, I didn't realize there was a consent sheet. I thought it was just an "Is your name right?" type thing, and it was so... I just kinda ignored it.</p>

<p>Same here...</p>

<p>Right. There wasn't anything to sign or send in unless something was wrong.</p>

<p>Is anyone going to the New York ceremony? I didn't think I could, but my dad's using college visits as an excuse to take me (no workshops, but I get to go to Carnegie).</p>

<p>I wanted to for a while, but honestly I just got a silver and I would feel kind of dumb going all the way there for that. And it's during school, so...yeah, I'm not going.</p>

<p>we need to SEND our work to scholastic or something? (gold award recipients) weird.</p>

<p>Can Canadians win nationally? I know they can win regionally but on the list of recipients its only people from US...</p>
