Class Experience
This class will help students develop confidence in their writing and begin to recognize and/or develop their own personal style and voice. There is something for everyone: the blossoming writer will be encouraged to recognize their inner talent and develop their writing craft, while all students will be encouraged to bring out the best of their ideas in their written work, for school or otherwise.
