Each contest will aim to capture and promote improving public education from works (i.e. videos, essays, etc.) made by individuals in a specific sub-group (i.e. teachers, principals, etc) or from the general public. The individual contests will be submitted under this generic clearance for approval as they occur throughout the year.
