Hi,
Is it possible to get the ages of the winners? Also, is it correct to assume that the high school winners included all essays written by children up through highschool age (i.e., including the 7th and 8th graders?)
Thanks
Gary
Gary, you are correct in assuming that the “high school” age is everything written up through high school age.
The best way to put it is: Category 1 (high school) = Ages 17-under
Category 2 (college) = Ages 18-22
