The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, a national program that offers early recognition of creative teenagers and scholarship opportunities for graduating high-school seniors, named more than 1200 of America's most talented young artists and writers from across the country as this year's national award recipients. Since Scholastic founded the program in 1923, more than 13 million of America's most talented junior-high and high-school students (grades seven to twelve) have participated in The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards.
