DOODLE FOR GOOGLE!
Doodle for Google is an annual contest where they invite students in grades K - 12 to express their creativity by drawing their very own Google Doodle in response to a prompt. The winning Doodle will be displayed on the Google homepage for 24 hours and be awarded a college scholarship! This year's prompt is "MY WISH FOR THE NEXT 25YEARS" inspired by Google's recent 25th birthday. They would like the kids to imagine and draw what the next 25 years might be like! Imagine the future like it's a giant blank playground, waiting for their awesome ideas to bring it to life. What cool things could happen - in their neighborhoods, their schools, their whole world? No dream is too big or too small!
Visit doodle4google.com to learn more about the contest and to discover how to submit. Waller Office also has a submission form that we could give you if interested! Submissions are open until March 14th. 55 students wil be named winners from their state. Four finalixts will sin a $5,000 scholarship and one winning student will receive a $30,000 college scholarship!
