Atkins HS, it's that time of year again! Calling all poets and performers,
To be considered for this year's school Poetry Out Loud contest, all students new to the competition (meaning you did not compete last year) must come to a tryout on Wednesday, December 4 to recite ONE of their chosen poems. Other arrangements must be made if you cannot attend on this date.
If you are selected and prepared, you will be invited to the the school contest to be held on Wednesday, December 11 in Room 501. For this contest, you will need TWO poems. The poem criteria is not enforced at this level of the competition (one old and one 20 lines or fewer), but you should probably go ahead and have at least one of your two school contest poems fit these criteria.
If you have any questions, please stop by to see teacher Scott Plaster in Room 501, or email at jsplaster@wsfcs.k12.nc.us.
