Ah. It all becomes clear. :)

I've mulled that possibility before. I mostly teach social studies, but I work closely with the English department too. I could see competitions like this being quite popular. I especially like the tight word count. (Not because I mind reading longer submissions, but because brevity is a tough-but-essential skill for young writers.) We may include something like that in the summer workshop.

I've been meaning to get in touch with SJG to see if they have any interest in supporting this.
