FCUSD Writing Celebration

This great event brings together students from every school and grade-level in FCUSD. If you’d like to get involved, here’s your chance!

All students, from pre-K through high school, are encouraged to submit a piece to our district-wide celebration.

Entries should not exceed two pages. Poetry is encouraged for the open-mic portion of the celebration, through all genres are welcome. 

We cannot guarantee that submissions will be returned, so please make a copy. Include the author’s full name on the front of the piece and provide school, grade-level, and teacher information on the back. Please do not send work from your entire class. It helps us greatly if you pick a small sampling of the work that you feel best represents your class. 

Submissions are due by April 11th. Send them to Sarah Kirby Gonzalez at Mather Heights Elementary. 

Writing Group teachers will review the entries and teachers will be notified by Wednesday, April 24th if their students have been chosen to be recognized. 

Date of event: Tuesday May 21, 2019 5:30-7:00 pm
