Scholarship video contest - Friday deadline

Five $1,000 scholarships are up for grabs in Ready Washington's 2017 'Opt In for Student Success' Contest. The deadline for Washington public high school students to submit their videos is this Friday, February 17th!

Here's how the contest works:

1. Any Washington public high school student records a video (max 30 seconds) that includes the phrase, "I opt in for a better education because..."

2. The student uploads the video to any social media site (YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Vimeo).

3. The student fills out this form and includes a link to the publicly-viewable video as well as the name of a special high school educator.

4. Committee will select the best five videos (based on content, video/sound quality, and creativity), and those students will earn a $1,000 scholarship. AND the nominated educator will receive a $200 Visa gift card!
