EVERYDAY HEROES:  THE POWER OF ONE

 

We're excited to kick off the 2023-24 Honoring Our Heroes Essay program in November. Honoring Our Heroes is a student writing contest designed for you to write about your real-life heroes and role models. 

 

A hero is defined as a person who is admired or idealized for their courage, outstanding achievements, distinguished abilities, and/or their noble qualities.

 

The person you write about should display one or more of the following characteristics: generosity, persistence, dedication, leadership, creativity, caring, bravery, imagination, service, gentleness, courage, or compassion.

 

We want you to recognize someone who has made an impact on your life such as a family member, doctor, public safety officer, soldier, or teacher.  A famous individual such as a professional athlete or movie star CAN be a personal hero if they have made an impact on your life through their dedication, perseverance, or other characteristics and NOT because of their fame.

 

Students who wish to enter must complete the Student Entry Form and turn in with their essay.
