National Chemistry Week Poster Contest for K-12

Each year, the American Chemical Society (ACS) sponsors a national poster contest for K-12 students.  This year, the theme is "Behind the Scenes with Chemistry".  This competition is a great way to encourage student to learn more about chemistry in everyday life.  The ACS also encourages using this event to set-up your own poster competitions in your community; the deadline for submissions to the national competition is Friday, October 19, 2010. National Chemistry Week is October 17-23, 2010.
