Contests are a fun way to motivate kids to go that extra step in showcasing what they've learned. Some families get such a kick out of entering contests that they build their homeschool year around writing themes for different contests.
We've rounded up over 50 annual academic and creative arts contests...students can enter. Be sure to click through each page, as we don't list contests more than once - but some contests fall under different categories. While all information is current, as of November 2017, be sure to check websites for additional details. Some contests have different deadlines for local, regional, and national eligibility.
