Districts Make The Difference Video Scholarships
Scholarship Sponsored by California Special Districts Association
We've taken our California student video contest and expanded it across the U.S. High school students are invited to create a fun and informative short video (60 seconds max) highlighting the ways special districts ‘Make the Difference’ in local communities across the US for a chance to win a scholarship. Additional prize money will be given to the teachers of the winning students to promote technology and support distance learning.
The video submission window will be open from January 1, 2024 to March 31, 2024. The top ten finalists will be chosen by Districts Make the Difference. Final winners will be selected during the public voting period May 10-17.
The video entries will be scored on four criteria: accuracy and effectiveness, creativity and originality, production quality, and entertainment value.
At the end of May, Districts Make the Difference will award:
- $2,000 for the First-place winner
- $1,000 for the Second-place winner
- $500 for the Third-place winner
- Note: An additional $500 will be awarded to the student’s chosen teacher for each winning video!
