Nothing for my son…he will be bummed. Congrats to all who did!!
My 8th grader won a gold and a silver, both in poetry 
silver and gold… i can’t breathe
gold (civic award) and silver!!
gosh darn…didn’t get anything. time to go kill myself now
Congrats to all! I didn’t get a medal…but there’s next year.
two gold medals. i’ve been shaking nonstop. i am so happy. senior year and i finally won at nationals.
@nobodycansaveme You still have that Gold key which is a tremedous accomplishment in and of itself and shows what a talented writer you are! In our region only 8% of the submitted works got a Gold key. Don’t give up and try for next year too with the Senior portfolio. You must be a terrific writer to have gotten this far.
Its not loading for me…
How did u guys find out? Did u get an email?
it took me a long time. i just stayed on the page for five minutes or so @delldellcell
2 years now and I haven’t gotten anything. I’m literally crying in class right now. My work is garbage. I am garbage.
Hey, I’ve been ghosting this thread but I just learned that I also got a gold medal in writing. Congrats to everyone who also got a medal and also to those who didn’t. For my first 3? years of the competition I didn’t even get a single gold key, so this was a pleasant surprise.
@nobodycansaveme Hey, like I wrote above, I didn’t even get a gold key for the first 3 years of my competing in this competition, so know that a national medal says nothing about your ability as a writer. Besides, if this is your second year competing, I assume you are a junior/sophomore, in which case you have at least one additional year to compete! I hope you feel better soon; don’t be so down on yourself! A regional gold key at all sufficiently proves you are a talented writer.
Been trying to get on for over ten minutes now, so I can tell you the suspense is worse
oh no!!
one national silver !
National Gold Medal in Poetry. IM CRYING. Though this seems arbitrary because this was the throwaway collection I submitted. Congrats to everyone else!
Good job to everyone, regardless of whether or not you got a medal. Please know that a judge, a panel, a competition doesn’t define you as a writer or artist. KEEP ON CREATING!
It seems like everyone else gets gold medals without even trying. It looks like I’m the only one on this thread who didn’t get anything.
