Vote for Cordova High Girls Group in Contest to Win $1500

Voting is open until April 23 for an online contest in which Cordova High School is a finalist. If Cordova High wins, the school will be awarded $1,500 to go toward their Girls Group.

The contest is held by Apperson Print Resources, a supplier of educational products and services based out of Washington. Apperson holds the contest six times per year, and Franklin Elementary of Loomis, Calif. was announced the winner of the most recent contest. Cordova High is the only local school nominated for the current contest.

Cordova High Principal Jacky Levy said the Girls Group is a program they started to help support girls who are facing challenges in their lives. “The money will be used for field trips to colleges, volunteer activities, and for an end-of-the-year recognition ceremony,” she said in an email.

The contest rules state only one vote per email address will be accepted, and even if Cordova High doesn’t win first place, the school may still qualify for the second place prize of $750 or the third place prize of $500. Nominations for the next contest are already underway, and any school can be nominated until April 23; nine finalists will be chosen from the results of the nominations, and voting for the next contest will take place in May.
