Submit your entry for the 2024 Writing Contest
Primavera Online School® and Arizona PBS would like to read your story about The Ultimate Field Trip you would take with your favorite teacher. Help us imagine it by writing and/or illustrating your fiction or nonfiction story and win cool prizes.
Primavera Online School® and Arizona PBS would like to welcome students from kindergarten through fifth grade to participate in this year’s writing contest sponsored by Primavera. The theme this year ties into the upcoming Teacher Appreciation Week May 6 to 10, 2024.
Help us imagine The Ultimate Field Trip you would take with your favorite teacher. What would you see and what you do in the jungle so green or the ocean so blue? Sail down the river in a canoe or race in a spaceship up to the moon? You decide!
About the contest
To enter, write and/or illustrate a story about The Ultimate Field Trip with your favorite teacher. Stories can be fact or fiction and should be submitted by Sunday, May 12, 2024.

Illustrations are not required, but we want every student to have fun! So feel free to add illustrations, drawings, 3D artwork or other art if you like.
Prizes will be awarded for first, second, and third place for each grade level. The prizes will be:
- First place: Amazon Fire Tablet
- Second place: VR Headset
