Entry Form

The deadline for entries has passed (October 23, 2023).

** NOTE: If you are viewing this website in the Schoology interface, please make sure you pop out the form in a new tab before completing it, otherwise you will not be able to upload your entry files! **

Please read and answer the questions carefully!  Here's how to make your entry REALLY STAND OUT with the judges:

• Entries must be digitally co-signed by both the student and their parent/guardian.  

• Please use the first "Email" field to enter a parent/guardian's email address.  We must have a non-school email address for all communications about your entry.  The second field (where it says "Parent email above, optional student email below") can be used for a secondary email address, and this could be the student's school or personal email.

• Make sure your work has a TITLE (try to think of something other than the theme for the title!).

• Fill out any special DETAILS about your entry. Please check the rules for your category to see what kind of information is needed here, e.g.:

  • DANCE/FILM: If background music is used, list the title of the song and the artist. 

  • LITERATURE: Provide the word count for the piece.   

  • MUSIC: List the musician(s) and instrument(s).

  • PHOTOGRAPHY: Provide the dimensions of the piece (in inches/cm/pixels) and information about the camera used. 

  • VISUAL ARTS: Provide the dimensions of the piece (in inches/cm/pixels) and information about the media used. 

• Fill out your ARTIST STATEMENT. You have a 100 word limit for this - use as much of it as you can! Remember, interpretation of the theme is worth nearly half of the score during judging so really think about what the theme means to you and why it inspired you to create this piece of art. I recommend typing up your artist statement in a separate Google document (hint: use the Google Docs word count, spelling and grammar check tools for that final polish) and then copying and pasting it into your entry form.  Please do NOT include your name in your artist statement.

• The GRADE DIVISION for entries is Middle School, unless the artist has a 504 plan or needed special accommodations as described in the Special Artist rules, in which case select Special Artist.

• Select the appropriate CATEGORY for your entry.

• Upload your file(s).  Visual arts entrants - if you're having trouble uploading one or more photos of your entry, you can take a picture using your Chromebook camera and upload that, then either email me the photo(s) separately at acrompton@rbusd.org or bring the entry to me at school so we can take a better photo.

If you are submitting an entry in the VISUAL ARTS category, we would like to display the original entry in our art gallery, so please bring the physical entry to Mrs. Crompton in the library as well as submitting the entry online.  PHOTOGRAPHY entries will also be appreciated if you are able to print and mount them yourself, otherwise we will assist with printing the entry.

NOTE:  If you do not see the entry form below, please check back soon! Students should use their school Google account to sign in.
