High school students have until February 9th to enter the 2015 Sleep Story Video Contest. Sponsored by the American Sleep Medicine Foundation, the contest invites teens to make and submit a creative video about the importance of sleep.

Up for grabs is a grand prize of $1,000 – split evenly between the winning student and his or her school. Second and third-place prizes of $500 and $250 also will be awarded.

Video entries must be between 30 seconds and 2 minutes in length. Entries can be serious or funny, dramatic or quirky. Judging criteria include message relevance and accuracy. Videos also will be judged on originality and overall quality. Entries must be received by Feb. 9, 2015.
