Birmingham Patch Seeks Whiz Kids for New School Year

We spotlight a Birmingham "whiz kid" every week, and we need your helping finding them.

Know a great kid who made Eagle Scout or did your local soccer team take the championship? They may be our next Patch Whiz Kid honoree.

Each week, Birmingham Patch seeks suggestions from readers for individual  kids, youth groups, teens, and even sports teams that wow us with their accomplishments. We want to hear about these amazing children and teens and select one each week as the Patch Whiz Kid.  Submit your nomination in our comment box below or e-mail the information to Laura.Houser@patch.com. Be sure to include all of the following information

  • Nominator's Name
  • Nominator's E-Mail
  • Whiz Kid's Name
  • Whiz Kid's Age
  • Whiz Kid's School
  • Whiz Kid's Accomplishment
  • Whiz Kid's Key to Awesomeness (what makes him/her successful?)

If your nominee is selected, we'll contact you and asign a photographer to take a photo. For questions, e-mail Editor Laura Houser at laura.houser@patch.com.
