Essay Contest

Each year, for the Greene County Literacy Coalition's Annual Meeting (usually in September), we hold an essay contest open to high school seniors at all Greene County schools (Greene County homeschooled seniors are welcome, too).  Below, you will find this year's essay contest application.  Submissions are due by Sunday, September 15, 2019 at 11:59PM. The winner of this $500 essay contest will be asked to read their essay at the annual meeting on Tuesday, September 24, at 7PM.
