Why do you tell people the winners in June 4? And why don’t you let us read the winners’ stories? And how are you going to send winner’s their pirzes???? ANSWER MEE
. And about how much people enter the contest each year? THE END.

Dear Vivian,
I’m sorry we were not able to notify all the teachers and writers–since we’ve operated only by US Post until now, and since there were nearly 400 entries from over 50 schools, it would have been a huge job. Next year we will list the names of all entries received on the contest webpage, and then we will announce the winners on that page too.
Sorry to leave you in doubt so long.
Best wishes,
Deborah Frisch

Hello,
Have the winners for the spring 2011 5th grade story-writing contest been announced? If yes, who are they and where do I find the information?
Thanks,
Ana
