The Virginia PTA is committed to promoting a sense of citizenship and responsibility in the lives of our children – tomorrow’s leaders. To demonstrate the value that Virginia PTA places on good citizenship, it is proud to sponsor, support, and encourage Virginia students to write an essay for its 2019-2020 Citizenship Essay Contest. This year’s selected theme is “What Does It Take To Be A Good Citizen?”
The citizenship essay contest is open to all Virginia students in grades K through 12 presently enrolled in schools with active PTA/PTSAs in good standing.
The deadline to submit essays to the NOVA District PTA is FEBRUARY 1, 2020. Students can submit their essays via email to awards@novadistrictpta.org or they can mail via snail mail to the address indicated in the application packet.
