Crime Stoppers Poster Contest

The Student Crime Stoppers Program and Poster Contest has been held annually in the 7th Circuit since the Columbine High School shooting. Our office is a proud partner of the contest, which is an effort to get “See it, Say it, Stop it” posters in schools to let students know that if they witness violence, bullying or negative attitudes toward others, they can report it anonymously with a call or text.

Elementary, middle and high school students from all four school districts (Flagler, Putnam, St. Johns and Volusia Counties) participate every year. Their original artwork then goes through two rounds of judging. It is judged in each county, followed by a grand judging at our main office in Daytona Beach.

The artists of the top three posters in each school level, in all four school districts, are awarded prize money. The circuit wide, grand prize-winning posters are displayed in schools and throughout the 7th Circuit.
