During the month of October, our Southern District of Indiana Court is participating in a student Bill of Rights Day contest along with other District Courts in the 7th and 8th circuits. School aged children (K-12) are invited to submit a short essay, poem, video, photograph, song, or piece of art on the importance of the Bill of Rights.
A grand prize winner from each of the three age groups (Grades K-5, 6-8 and 9-12) will be awarded a $500 cash prize, and have their name and submission shared on the websites of the participating United States District Courts. Semi-finalists from Indiana will receive an electronic gift card valued at $50.
Submissions will be accepted through 5:00pm on Saturday, October 31.
Full contest details and submission guidelines can be found on the Court’s website https://www.insd.uscourts.gov/bill-rights-day.
