CONGRATULATIONS
Elena (6th grade)

her design was selected as one of

50 First Prize Winners 

in the

Nestle Push-Up and Create Contest 
 

Entries for this contest were due to me, at the end of last school year, June 2009.  Students were asked to create a design for Push-Up Ice Cream Tube.  I received over 80 entries - I always tell my students, "You've gotta be in it to win it!"  Thank you to ALL of my students who entered this contest - keep up the GREAT WORK!  We have been waiting patiently for the website to reveal the winners...then last week we my principal received a call - it was so EXCITING, we had a winner!

As a National winner Katie wins a monetary prize and her design will be printed on the Push-Up Ice Cream Tubes - coming to a supermarket near you in 2010!  How FUN is that???  In addition, the school receives a donation in recognition of the student that goes to support ART EDUCATION at Mount Prospect School.   

You Can VOTE too!!!

To be part of the FUN, go to the Scholastic Website to VOTE for your favorite and help determine the 5 KIDs' PICK WINNERS!  Make sure to include Elena in your picks!!!  You can pick 5 designs each day and you can vote everyday until January 31, 2010!

BRAVO to Dreyer's, Nestle & Scholastic for

 developing a contest
that supports ART in schools!
