It's time to pick the winners in the WECHU's technology challenge

The Windsor-Essex County Health Unit has narrowed a wide field down in its responsible technology challenge at area schools.

The second annual Connected Not Controlled PSA challenge is moving into its final phase, and the public is now invited to choose the winners.

Students in Grades 6 through 12 were invited to create a 30-second PSA about digital technology and its effect on students' well-being.

The health unit worked with a panel of youth judges to narrow down 57 submissions to five finalists in two categories.

The categories are Grades 6-8 and Grades 9-12.

The public can vote for their choices online now through midnight on Monday, May 4. There will be winners for first, second, and third place in each age group.

The winners will be announced by Friday, May 8.
