Poetry Workshop a Huge Success!

Today the Lower School had a couple of outstanding visitors to lead a poetry workshop for grades 1-4. Nancy Powell, President of the Poetry Society of Virginia and Carolyn Foronda, Poet Laureate of Virginia 2006-2008, held two sessions this afternoon. I was amazed at the beautiful poetry that was created in such a short time! The Poetry Society holds an annual student competition, and we are hoping that many students will decide to submit poems by the January 19th deadline. Here are some pictures of the 3rd/4th grade session!
