Contest Benefits
 
  • Offers schools an effective character education and literacy program that is endorsed by the National Association of Secondary School Principals and the National School Boards Association.

  • Is an inclusive activity, encouraging students of all backgrounds/abilities to self-express confidently and coherently in the medium—writing, music or art—of their choice.

  • Enables more than 100 young people to win prizes! Oftentimes, a winner will be a student who has never before received any kind of recognition or been told that his/her ideas matter. Participating in the contest can be a life-transforming experience for a young person.

  • Encourages families to talk about what matters most in life. What can be more important?

  • Creates a positive atmosphere of trust and respect in the classroom.

  • Is easy for teachers (especially in Art, Music, English and Social Studies departments) to incorporate into their lessons, and does not create extra work.

  • Let’s schools honor their own. Every participating school is guaranteed one winner!
The Philadelphia Inspired Expressions Contest is endorsed by the National Association of Secondary School Principals and the National School Boards Association.
