Original photo must accompany the digitally enhanced photo. - Separate registration and photo release forms are required with each entry - Winning entries will become property of CLIU. All other entries will be returned to your school district

//By mounting, we mean that the photo should have a rigid back. In the past, some students have mounted on thick posterboard, and some have used the Matting Frames (have a rigid back and an open frame). . . pretty cheap to purchase at Michaels or AC Moore. This makes it easier to display on the night of the contest.//
 * Update*** Here's the official word on what it means to have your picture "mounted":

Awards and Judging: A panel of judges will award first, second, and third places in each category for each grade level. Judging will be based on scoring rubrics developed specifically for the competition. Judges reserve the right to switch prints to a more appropriate category. All judges' decisions are final. Competitors do not need to be present at the showcase to win a prize.

Deadline: All entries are due to Mr Mahmood by [TBD]. Photos must be submitted with the entry form and a photo release form. Click below for both forms



Good luck!
