At WHE students may enter one piece in each of 6 categories:
Visual arts (2D and 3D) - YIPPPPEEE - These will be judged as two separate catagories
Literature
Photography
Musical Composition
Film
Dance
Students compete in different age groups:
Primary (K - 2nd grade)
Intermediate (3rd - 5th grade)
Middle / Junior (6th - 8th grade)
Our local PTA is responsible for judging the Primary and Intermediate categories, we will also judge 6th grade entries but will only be allowed to send forward a limited number of entries as they will be competing with 7th and 8th graders in the Middle / Junior age division at the Roy Council level.
The top two entries from each category and age group move onto the Council level (at Roy High).
To find out more about this great program please check out the UTA PTA website
If you want to start planning for next years entries the category guidelines are a good place to start. These are for this years theme but will still give you a good idea of what you can and cannot do.
REMEMBER students can enter in multiple categories but only ONE time per category. (Example, 1 visual arts, 1 musical composition, 1 photography).
We will have next years forms in the office NEXT year and they will also be available at the UTA PTA website.

Artwork must be
created for and relate to the theme,
“What is your story?
The concept is
more important than the technique
