HEROES is sponsoring its
Second Annual Writing Talent Search.
The Writing Talent Search will allow students under the age of 16 to have an essay evaluated by college writing instructors based on the same grading rubric used for Expository Writing (aka Comp 101). Each essay will receive individualized comments and a completed grading rubric.
Finalists and semi-finalists will receive medals, certificates and letters of commendation. Finalists will also be invited to a final round where they will work with writing instructors from Rutgers University and compete under proctored conditions for $1,600 in scholarships. Students who reside more than 100 miles from New Brunswick may participate in the final round via Skype.
