We The Students ESSAY

CONTEST

(15) $500-

$5,000 2/14/19 • STUDENTS AGES 14-19

What are the essential qualities of a citizen in your community in 21st century

America?

This year we are asking you to dig deep and make your scholarship essay personal. A

citizen comes in many shapes and sizes. Some serve their community by voting and

participating in political events. Others serve through entrepreneurship or philanthropy.

We want to know what you think makes a good citizen in your community. We encourage

you to bring emotion, creativity, specific examples (including current events), and well-

researched facts into what you write. A good essay will demonstrate how citizenship is

not an abstract idea, but is, in fact, action inspired by constitutional principles. We

can’t wait to see what citizenship looks like in your community!

See here for some great essay writing tips: https://billofrightsinstitute.org/educator-

BREAKING SCHOLARSHIP NEWS FROM THE COLLEGE BOARD!!!

Major professional accomplishment alert! During an exclusive broadcast segment on Good Morning America, my team announced the College Board Opportunity Scholarships, a $25 million commitment to encourage more students to take the steps necessary to get into college. This first-of-its-kind national scholarship program lays out six simple steps that all students can take to get college. Each step will earn a chance for a scholarship; doing all six will earn a chance to win $40,000 for their college education:

1. Build their college list

2. Practice for the SAT

3. Improve their SAT score

4. Strengthen their college list

5. Fill out the FAFSA

6. Apply to college

The six steps highlighted by College Board Opportunity Scholarships help students plan by making a good starter list of schools, prepare so they can take their best shot at getting in, and pay for college by earning scholarships and applying for financial aid. A video explaining the program is available here.

Students can begin today by signing up at https://CB.org/Opportunity .

AmeriCorps Opportunities Some Benefits You Feel, Other Benefits are Real. Perhaps the first and biggest benefit people get from volunteering is the satisfaction of incorporating

service into their lives and making a difference in their community and country. The intangible benefits alone—such as pride, satisfaction and

accomplishment—are worthwhile reasons to serve.

AmeriCorps programs do more than move communities forward; they serve their members by creating jobs and providing pathways to opportunity for

young people entering the workforce. AmeriCorps places thousands of young adults into intensive service positions where they learn valuable work skills,

earn money for education, and develop an appreciation for citizenship.
