We will give these collections of writing to the parents at the Sixth Grade Graduation in the spring.

In fact, various student academic competitions have been with us for many years. The effectiveness of these competitions as educational tools is not fully known. Some scholars even debate the role of competition in the educational arena. Academic competitions seem to be growing in popularity. Many industry people find the competitions to be a very effective means to evaluate potential employees. The students who participate in these competitions also welcome the exposure to potential employers. The question which must be asked by educators is: "are these competitions meaningful educational experiences, and if they are not, then why are we spending valuable time and assets towards the implementation of these competitions, especially if the only return from the competitions is measured in terms of successful job placements?". Some information has been published regarding the effectiveness of competition as it relates to education. This research will: 1) share information regarding other student competitions, 2) highlight some of the literature published regarding competition with respect to intrinsic motivation, and 3) share some of the data accumulated from a survey tool which was implemented during the 1997 ASC Region V student competitions. Based upon this research an opinion will be offered regarding student competitions, thereby providing a platform from which further debates regarding student competitions can begin.
