Language Arts Grant Recipient

Grant money at Big Creek High School funds classroom resources

Thanks to Creative Communication for allowing our students the opportunity to showcase their talents.  Often, students are turned off at the thought of having to read and write poetry. With the grant funds, I purchased poetry books used in grades 10-12.  Since the subjects and authors varied, I have a valuable resource added to the class library.  With the added preparation that we now have in the classroom, students have overcome many writing obstacles.  Now the “drudgery of poetry” has become enjoyment.  Already this year, Creative Communication has again accepted poetry of ours.  What pride for a small, rural area!
