About the Scholarship

CCM is actively engaging Connecticut's youth through this scholarship opportunity. The contest is open to all students attending a Connecticut middle (grades 6-8) or high (grades 9-12) school. Students can work by themselves, or they may collaborate with peers and submit group projects of no more than 3 people. There will be one middle school and one high school project selected. Each winning project will receive a $1,000 prize.
