We are looking for leaders in our community to help judge Round 1 and Round 2 of our Amazing Shake competition. Share this Amazing Shake Judge Flyer with anyone you know who may be interested.

Round 1 will be held on Tuesday, February 11 (8:00am-12:00pm) at Bell’s Crossing Elementary. We do ask that people who volunteer to be judges have no connection to 4th graders at our school, as we want judging to be fair and unbiased. Judges will meet, shake hands, and hold a brief conversation (30 seconds) with each student. Then, judges will score students on their handshake, eye contact, poise, and conversation using a secret scorecard. Business attire is not required, but encouraged on this day, as we will ask our students to “dress to impress.” 

Round 1 Judge Sign Ups

Round 2 will be held on Thursday, February 13 (8:00am-10:00am) at Bell's Crossing Elementary. In this round 20 students will compete in "think on your feet" stations where they will role play to solve some type of problem/real life situation. For example, students may walk into a "pizza store" where an upset customer says a slice of his pizza was missing upon delivery. The student has to "think on their feet" as the pizza manager to decide how to handle this situation.   Judges on this day will stay at a single station and participate in the "role play" as 20 students come through their station. Judges will have a clipboard with a scoring sheet where they will score students on handshake, eye contact, charisma, poise under pressure, and common sense.
