1.  The contest is educationally sound and worthy.

2.  The contest is stimulating to the student and school and desirable for both.

3.  The contest must not place an undue burden on the students, families, teachers, and the school.

4.  The contest is not commercial or sectarian.

5.  The contest will not take students from school unnecessarily.

6.  Participation from state and national principal groups are considered.

7.  For secondary school contests, from the list of approved contests published by the Connecticut Association of Schools.
