Young Writers Contest
The statewide Young Writers Contest is sponsored by the West Virginia Department of Education and the West Virginia Writing Project. The contest is designed to promote writing in West Virginia’s schools.
The annual Young Writers Contest recognizes excellence in writing by each county’s most talented students in 1st through 12th grades.
On May 7th at 7:00 p.m., the NWP at WVU will co-host with Monongalia County Schools an awards ceremony to recognize the local winnders of the Young Writers Contest.
To promote writing even further, the NWP at WVU hopes to provide young writers in North Central West Virginia a week-long summer writing camp by 2008.
