CT COLT Essay Contest 2024-2025

The Essay Contest is a wonderful way to promote the study of world languages and encourage students to share their experiences and perspectives with audiences and stakeholders throughout Connecticut. 

This annual contest is aligned with the CT COLT annual theme, which prompts students to reflect on their experiences and share their perspectives. Student work is submitted in English in order to present additional opportunities to use their submissions for advocacy. 

The 2024 CT COLT theme: Connect for the Love of Languages!

Please register and submit student essays between December 1, 2024 - February 1, 2025. For further contest information, please visit the contest webpage
