Conwell Middle School will no longer close, Philly school district says
The decision to spare the two schools from proposed closures comes after nearly a month of intense community pushback against the district’s sweeping facilities plan.
Students in grades six through 12 are invited to join our Creative Writing Corner with Khysir Carter, a writing workshop dedicated to building creative writing skills with peers and writing professionals.
Students can drop in at any time. However, youth participants who work with us to publish their writing in our newspaper, website, or other media will receive a gift card ranging from $75 to $150 for their work.
We'll provide after-school snacks and drinks, plus all the writing supplies. The recommended age is 6th through 12th grade, but we won't turn anybody away.
Register for our Youth Voices program and choose “Creative Writing Corner” to get the door code: tinyurl.com/y88wu4w8.
PS: Feel free to bring friends 🙂
