National Russian Essay Contest (NREC)42th Annual National Russian Essay Contest (NREC)
Established over forty years ago, the ACTR National Russian Essay Contest (NREC) provides high school and middle school students the opportunity to demonstrate their writing proficiency in Russian. Students write essays in Russian on a topic announced at the beginning of a two-hour period during the week before Thanksgiving. The ACTR National Russian Essay Contest serve high school and middle school students of Russian. The topic is the same for all the students who write the essay. Essays are judged at the Beginning, Intermediate, Advanced and Native Speaker levels. Heritage students (those who came to the United States before age 10) are judged separately at the Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced levels. A team of judges rates the essays as Honorable Mention, Bronze, Silver or Gold. All student participants receive a certificate; in addition, authors of Bronze-, Silver- and Gold-award essays receive medals. Renew your ACTR membership to register your students.
