Can We Trust High School Students to Think for Themselves?

High school students aren’t babies. We believe they can think for themselves, even when confused, confounded or conflicted. Proof? Let Grow’s “Think for Yourself” college scholarship contest garnered over 9000 essays on topics like, “Did you ever learn something…from a jerk?”

We chose four winners and:

One got published in EdWeek!

Another got published in The New York Post!
