Gold key winners will have their entries submitted to the national competition, where they will be in contention for national medals and potential scholarships.

Each of the recognized students was sponsored by one of the following faculty members: Matthew Helmers, Ariel Lewis, Elizabeth Cornick, Frances Alexander, Gila Aloni, Kate Hamm, Matt Stock, Jorge Guzman, Astrid Dalins, Elsa Munoz.
