Knights of Columbus Catholic Citizenship Essay Contest
OVERVIEW: Each year
the Danbury Knights of Columbus McGivney Council #29 sponsor a Catholic Citizenship
Essay Contest for the three Parochial schools in Danbury, CT. The goal of the Catholic citizenship essay contest is to give students an opportunity to define the role of the Catholic citizen in many different scenarios and to strengthen the bond between the Knights of Columbus in local schools.
This contest encourages today's youth to be more connected to their
community and their faith. The objective of this program is to
involve young Catholics in grade 8 of Danbury's Catholic schools in civic
discourse and instill in them religious and life-affirming
values. The essay should be approximately 500-750 words on the
specific subject which changes every year. Entrants will be
judged on grammar, style, and how clearly they presented the
theme. Entries should display creativity, imagination and overall
development of the topic.
