This year, students across the nation in grades 7–12 submitted close to 350,000 works of art to be considered for awards in 29 categories. From that pool, a smaller selection of works was judged and deemed worthy of Gold Key, Silver Key, or Honorable Mention awards. Students at CSW earned 69 regional awards, 19 of which were Gold Keys. Roughly 19,600 works across the nation earned regional Gold Keys and advanced to national adjudication in NYC. Of those Gold Key works, just 3,259 received National Medals.
Five CSW student pieces were selected as national winners. Their work is one of the top 1% of art and writing submitted to the 2018 Scholastic Awards.
