Students: This information is from an email I received on Wednesday, April 30.
I thought some of you might be interested in entering this student contest.
Goals Matter!
eScholar's Annual Student Contest
Students, what are goals that you want to achieve and why?
If you’re a student between the ages of 8-17, tell us about your goals!
As students, sometimes you get so caught up in the day-to-day aspects of life that it can be easy to forget about your big goals. Well, goals matter and at eScholar, we want to hear about them. Not only do we want to hear about your goals, but FOUR STUDENTS will win brand new iPad Minis!
For complete information & to enter, go to their website:

To enter the eScholar Goals Matter contest, answer the following question:
What is a goal that you want to accomplish and why?
When thinking about your answer, please
tell us:
·
What motivates you to achieve this goal?
·
How do you plan on reaching this goal?
·
Who has encouraged you to reach for this goal?

How will your education help you reach your goal?
