Young Authors
2017-2018 - Submissions Due to the school library by Friday, December 15th 2017! Our deadline has been extended to the 15th as it became apparent that several students are still working on their writing!
PES is accepting original stories written by students in grades K-4 for the Chatham County Schools Young Authors writing program. Each year all student authors are invited to write, publish and submit their own book. Judges from the school Digital Learning Team will read and comment on each book. We will host a Young Authors celebration for all students and families in March. A small number of student books will be selected to be recognized at a district wide celebration at Fearrington Village tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, April 10th, 2018.
Please share this info with parents.
