Leasure Elementary Fifth Grader Wins
State InvestWrite Essay Contest

Shirin Faqiri, a 5th grade student at Leasure Elementary School, is the winner of the InvestWrite Essay Competition for the State of Delaware.  InvestWrite is open to students involved with their school’s Stock Market Game. The Stock Market Game is a school-based activity where students start with a virtual cash account of $100,000, and strive to create the best-performing stock portfolio using a live trading simulation. They work together in teams, practicing leadership, organization, negotiation, and cooperation as they compete to be the top investor.  

For the essay contest, students were asked to write on a hot topic in investing.  Students at Leasure Elementary School voluntarily do this assignment in addition to playing the Stock Market Game.  Essays are submitted online and expert judges from around the country pick the best ones.  Faqiri’s essay was picked out of all the elementary, middle and high school essays that were submitted statewide.  learn more
