Americanism Elementary School Poster Contest
What is the poster contest?
It is a contest for elementary school students to create their own original artistic poster based on the current theme. Not only do the judges grade on how well the entries express the theme, but on originality and creativity, as well as evidence of historical research on the given topic. Prizes will be awarded to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners by the MDSSAR and there are also national prizes awarded.
