HSLDA | HSLDA Contests

Students must write an essay answering one of the following questions:

Category 1: If there was one person in the world you could help, who would it be, why would you help them, and how would you help them?

Category 2: If you could choose to make a small difference in the world at large or a big difference in one person’s life, which would you choose and why?

Category 3: Describe an admirable quality or admirable position of a person with whom you largely disagree.

Spend some time reflecting on the question at hand and then be creative! We look forward to seeing what you come up with.
