Holiday Card Contest Returns for Fourth Year in Grants Pass School District 7
It's time to cast your vote in the Grants Pass School District Holiday Card Contest and time is running out. For the 4th year, District 7 is holding a districtwide art contest to select the artwork for holiday cards.
Dozens of students participated this year, creating beautiful holiday card designs with pencil, paint, marker and more. Designs focus on the spirit and beauty of the holiday and winter seasons.
This year, 25 card designs are in the running for the categories of K-1, 2-3, 4-5, 6-8 and 9-12 along with the People's Choice from all grade levels. Grade-level winners are picked by a district judging panel which includes the Grants Pass School Board, Superintendent Tim Sweeney, printshop designers and district staff.
The holiday card contest was started in 2020 as a way to bring the entire school community together during distance learning brought on by the pandemic. Now it's become a tradition that brings the community together to celebrate student art.
Voting is underway now and anyone is welcome to cast their vote for the People's Choice Award through Sunday. Winners will be announced Monday and student artists will be recognized at next Tuesday's Board of Education meeting. Variety packs of the winning designs will be available for limited purchase.
