The prestigious annual Scholastic Art & Writing Awards has recognized the achievements of dozens of Wellesley Middle School, Wellesley High School, and Dana Hall students. The awards program, established in 1923, runs in partnership with The School of the Museum of Fine Arts (SMFA) and the Boston Globe and gives out awards in categories such as photography, jewelry, drawing, short stories, critical essays, and poetry.

All awardees will receive a certificate. In addition, all Gold and Silver Key winners will receive a Gold or Silver Key pin, and Gold Key work will go electronically to New York to compete against all the other Gold Key work from around the country for National Medals. Gold and Silver Key winners will be invited to a ceremony at the Museum of Fine Arts on March 12, 2016. Gold Key winners’ work will be featured at an exhibition at EF, Education First, from March 5–20.
