Belle Aire Young Authors Club

Attention Third through Sixth graders who love to write:


Many of us love to create our own stories, but never find the time to sit down and write. Share ideas, get editing help, and give yourself a chance to write right here at Belle Aire School. You might even make a friend with another student who loves to write. Join us on Thursdays from 3-3:45 starting on January 12. The completed stories are due on March 23. If Thursdays are not convenient for you, we still want to encourage you to write. Talk to Mrs. Mommsen for more details.


To register for Belle Aire Young Authors’ Club, please have your parent complete this form.
